Unzipping latest zip file by name.

I have these zip files that come in with the same name, but different versions. We'll say:

SQL_version2.zip
SQL_version3.zip
SQL_version2432.zip

I was wondering if there is a single command (or even piped command, thus still making it a single command) that will let me unzip the latest version only? In this case, I'd want to unzip SQL_version2432.zip only.

Thanks in advance.

ZIP2ST(1)							 Hatari utilities							 ZIP2ST(1)

NAME
zip2st - a program for converting .zip archives to Atari .st disk images SYNOPSIS
zip2st srcname.zip [dstname.st] DESCRIPTION
zip2st can be used to convert a .zip file to a .st disk image. If the destination filename is not given, use the name of the .zip file, without the extension, and save it in the current working direc- tory. Any single directories (other than 'auto') at root of the zip archive are traversed down to avoid adding redundant intermediate directories from the zip file to the generated disk image. The .st disk image is a raw disk image, and can be written to a floppy using dd(1) or converted to .msa disk image with hmsa(1). The contents of the uncompressed zip file need to be smaller than 2.88MB (the largest floppy image size supported by Hatari). SEE ALSO
hmsa(1), atari-hd-image(1), hatari(1), unzip(1), mtools(1), dd(1). AUTHOR
