BULAWAYO, JULY 8: Africa completed a comprehensive win by an innings and 236 runs after Zimbabwe collapsed after lunch on the third day of the second Test at Queens Sports Club on Tuesday.
Fast bowlers Corbin Bosch (four for 38) and Codi Yusuf (two for 38), together with left-arm spinner Senuran Muthusamy (three for 77) were mainly responsible for bowling out Zimbabwe for 220 in the second innings.
Despite fielding what was effectively a second-string team, South Africa were in control of the match from the start as stand-in captain Wiaan Mulder's South African record 367 not out led them to a total of 626 for five declared.
Zimbabwe provided resistance in losing only two wickets before lunch on Tuesday after resuming on 51 for one.
Nick Welch made 55 and captain Craig Ervine scored 49 after the early dismissal of overnight batsman Takudzwanashe Kaitano (40). It was the 10th successive Test win for world champions South Africa, one more than their previous most successful streak between 2001 and 2003.    "AFP
