Dolar Mahmud took a career best 4-28 Tuesday as Bangladesh bowled out Zimbabwe for 209 in their fifth and final one-day international match on Tuesday.

Bangladesh have already clinched the series after taking a 3-1 lead on Sunday with a four-wicket victory.

Right-arm seam bowler Mahmud, playing his first match of the tour, used the conditions well to extract some swing at the Queens Sports Club for the first time in the series.

Wicketkeeper-batsman Brendan Taylor top-scored for Zimbabwe with a defiant innings of 61 runs. He faced 86 balls and struck three boundaries and a six.

Zimbabwe lost its first wicket when out-of-sorts Vusi Sibanda, opening the batting, moved across the line to lose his leg stump to Mahmud. Charles Coventry, who hit an unbeaten 194 on Sunday to equal the highest ever one-day international score, was out for a duck when he got a thick outside-edge off Mahmud and was caught by wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim.

Hamilton Masakadza, another Zimbabwean centurion in this series, was the next wicket to fall after adding 25 runs before being run out by Mohammad Ashraful following a mix-up with Malcolm Waller, who himself didn't last long before Mahmud bowled him.

Syed Rasel then trapped Sean Williams (12) in front before Elton Chigumbura (12) went the same way to Mahmud to reduce the hosts to 65-5.

Captain Prosper Utseya, under pressure to step down following criticism of his leadership, then added 54 runs with Ray Price for the seventh wicket off 86 balls, before Utseya (21) was bowled by Mahmudullah Riad.

Price clipped four boundaries over long on to reach 46 off 59 balls. He and Taylor put on 53 for the eighth wicket before Taylor was out lbw to a Mehraib Hossain delivery that appeared to be missing off stump.

The last two wickets to fall were Price, out leg before to a Rasel full length ball, and Graeme Cremer, who was stumped by Rahim off Naeem Islam for 10.
