Andrew Balbirnie hit an unbeaten 82 as Ireland beat Zimbabwe by seven wickets to secure a 2-0 ODI series victory.
The hosts reached 78-3 in Harare before a rain delay saw the game reduced to 40 overs a side.
Joylord Gumbie made 72 while Curtis Campher and Graham Hume both took four wickets as Zimbabwe were bowled out for 197.
Ireland eased to victory with Balbirnie supported by Campher (40) and Harry Tector (33) as they made 204-3.
The Irish won the second ODI after the opener was washed out and they elected to field on Sunday after winning the toss.
Tinashe Kamunhukamwe fell early to Hume but a 69-run partnership between opener Gumbie and captain Sikandar Raza (33) took Zimbabwe to 123-3.
However, the wickets soon tumbled with Hume (4-34) and Campher (4-47) on top form and the remaining seven wickets falling for just 74 runs.
Irish skipper Paul Stirling (eight) was dismissed with just 12 runs on the board but fellow opener Balbirnie ensured a smooth passage to the victory target.
Balbirnie and Campher put on 70 runs and a 63-run partnership with Campher brought Ireland within sight of the win.
Lorcan Tucker (29) was alongside Balbirnie when the series victory was secured with 13 balls to spare.
