Bermuda, who were bowled out for 45 and lost by 241 runs to England on Monday, made 136 all out with Janeiro Tucker returning from injury to underpin the innings with a powerful 52 off 88 balls.

Paceman Anthony Ireland was Zimbabwe's best bowler with three for 22 off eight overs including three maidens.

Burly Bermudan left-arm spinner Dwayne Leverock, who weighed in with two for 32 against England despite his 19-stone frame, took another two wickets.

Bermuda, making their tournament debut, face former winners Sri Lanka in their Group B opener on March 15 when Zimbabwe play Ireland in their first Group D clash.
