Zimbabwe were dismissed for 205, failing to add to their overnight score but losing their last two wickets in only 13 minutes.
Richard Ngarava was run out in the second over of the day amid confusion with captain Craig Ervine, who went in the next over trapped leg before wicket by Rashid Khan, who finished with 7-66 in 27.3 overs.
