That completes our coverage of the second ODI. Australia claim the series. They will chase the sweep on Sunday. Hope you can join us then.

5.05pm Presentation

Australia captain Mitchell Marsh: "We thought it was a complete performance from the boys. The way Travis batted gave us a platform for the middle order. It was great to see Cooper Connolly and Peakey play roles like that and then obviously we had Billy Stanlake go down and our part timers and allrounders really stepped up in those conditions. No update yet on Billy but hopefully he's OK."

Player of the match is Travis Head: "It was nice to spend some time in the middle and spend some time out there with Mitch. We didn't train for a couple of days which was good actually. We'd done a fair bit of training going into the series. It was nice to be fresh. We just tried to be aggressive and impact the game."

Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza: "I think bowling first was the right decision. There was seam and carry in the wicket. Credit to Travis and Mitch Marsh. They put us under pressure.The boys tried but their skills, even some of our good balls went for boundaries. Sometimes when two of the world's best get going it's hard to control at times. I thought 350 was too much. 300-310 was chasable."

4.57pm Australia win by 84 runs and claim the series 2-0. Far too good from start to finish. It was set-up by a 75-ball century from Travis Head. Half-centuries from Marsh and Connolly kept the momentum going and Peake's 18-ball cameo of 41 not out pushed them to 356 for 6. Zimbabwe's batters all got started but all scored too slowly and none got to 50. The wickets were shared among Australia's bowlers after they lost Billy Stanlake to a side strain. Adam Zampa took his 200th ODI scalp while Peake got his first.
