Day 3 – Stumps: Tuskers trail by 22 runs

Overnight, Eagles were 239 for five wickets, with Hamid Ali on 36 and Akram 54.
They carried their partnership to 137 for the sixth wicket in the morning before Ali was out for 63.
Matt Parkinson gave Akram useful support as he went on to record his highest first-class score of 97 before he was out just after having taken Eagles into the lead.
Eagles were finally dismissed for 378, a lead of 40, with Luke Jongwe being the most successful bowler with four wickets for 66.
When Tuskers batted again, they lost Taffy Mupariwa, lbw to Akram, for five.
They had reached 18 for one wicket when rain came on and no more play was possible.
