Sanju Samson (W) c Ryan Burl b Blessing Muzarabani 24 15 1 2 160

3.4

Blessing Muzarabani to Sanju Samson, OUT! TAKEN! Blessing Muzarabani strikes the first blow. He rolls his fingers to take the pace off, lands this short of a length and angling into leg. Sanju Samson backs away but goes through the pull shot a bit early and does not get the timing right. It flies towards deep mid-wicket, where Ryan Burl runs forward and takes a good catch with a slide.

Abhishek Sharma c Sikandar Raza b Tinotenda Maposa 55 30 4 4 183.33

12.5

Tinotenda Maposa to Abhishek Sharma, OUT! CAUGHT! Tinotenda Maposa strikes after taking quite a bit of punishment. This is the leg-cutter, on a length, outside off, Abhishek crouches and has a swing at it. He does not pick the slower one and is early into the shot. Drags it right off the toe end of the blade. It goes flat to long on, where Sikandar Raza runs in off the ropes and takes a safe catch. Relief on the face of Maposa.

Ishan Kishan c Richard Ngarava b Sikandar Raza 38 24 4 1 158.33

10.4

Sikandar Raza to Ishan Kishan, OUT! CAUGHT! Sikandar Raza strikes back and roars in celebration. This is dropped short, slower and wider on off. Kishan hops to ride the bounce and throws his hands at the ball. The ball turns away after landing and catches the outer half of the blade. It balloons tamely to short third, where Richard Ngarava makes no mistake. End of a big 72-run stand and India are 120/2.

Suryakumar Yadav (C) c Tashinga Musekiwa b Richard Ngarava 33 13 3 2 253.85

14.5

Richard Ngarava to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! CAUGHT! The change of angle works straight away for Richard Ngarava. Ngarava switches to around the wicket and hits the deck hard to tuck the batter up for room. Suryakumar Yadav makes room to go up and over extra cover. The ball gets big on him and it comes off the upper half of the bat. Spoons it towards deep cover, where Tashinga Musekiwa runs forward and gobbles it up. The ball has been following him in the last couple of games, and he has finally managed to hold onto one.

6.2

Axar Patel to Tadiwanashe Marumani, OUT! CAUGHT! Axar Patel strikes with his second ball. Flatter and a bit fuller, outside off. Tadiwanashe Marumani presses back and looks to force it away on the off side. Gets a thickish outside edge that goes straight to cover, where Ishan Kishan takes the catch around his face on the edge of the ring. The 44-run opening stand is broken.

Dion Myers c Tilak Varma b Varun Chakaravarthy 6 9 0 0 66.67

9.3

Varun Chakaravarthy to Dion Myers, OUT! CAUGHT! Dion Myers holes out! Looped up by Varun Chakaravarthy, googly on a length, on off. Dion Myers gets down on a knee and looks to launch it down the ground. The ball spins back in and Myers ends up getting too close to the ball. He cannot swing his arms through and it is skied towards wide mid on. Tilak Varma from deep mid-wicket and Hardik Pandya from long on converge. Tilak calls for it and makes no mistake.

Sikandar Raza (C) c Abhishek Sharma b Arshdeep Singh 31 21 2 2 147.62

16.2

Arshdeep Singh to Sikandar Raza, OUT! CAUGHT! Arshdeep Singh gets among the wickets now. He hits the length hard and on middle. Sikandar Raza hangs back and looks to go over long on, but does not get the elevation as he connects with the bottom half of the bat. It flies straight to Abhishek Sharma, who makes no mistake. 33rd wicket in T20 World Cups for Arshdeep, level with Jasprit Bumrah for most wickets for India in this tournament's history. Zimbabwe are 144/3.

Ryan Burl lbw b Arshdeep Singh 0 2 0 0 0

16.4

Arshdeep Singh to Ryan Burl, OUT! LBW! An excellent review from India and Arshdeep Singh gets his second of the over. Arshdeep overtakes Bumrah, and he now has the most wickets (34) for India in T20 World Cups. Fuller and on middle, angling in, Ryan Burl fails to clip it away and the ball goes off his pads and rolls to the off side. A leg bye taken. Arshdeep Singh turns around and puts his hands up in the air to ask the question to the umpire, but gets nothing. SKY takes the review. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds, with the ball hitting the leg stump. Arshdeep has a look at Sanju Samson, who might have suggested it was going down the leg side.

Tony Munyonga b Arshdeep Singh 11 6 2 0 183.33

18.2

Arshdeep Singh to Tony Munyonga, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! Number 3 for Arshdeep Singh. He comes around the wicket, nails the yorker, on middle, tailing in. Tony Munyonga backs away a bit too much and fails to get his bat in line with the ball. It goes under the blade and crashes into the stumps. Zimbabwe are 162/5 now.

Tashinga Musekiwa c Sanju Samson b Shivam Dube 7 4 0 1 175

19.3

Shivam Dube to Tashinga Musekiwa, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Superb grab by the keeper. Shivam Dube gets the back-of-the-hand slower one right this time, full and on off. Tashinga Musekiwa slogs across the line way too early and gets a thin outside edge behind. Sanju Samson flings himself to his right and takes a fantastic catch with his outstretched right hand.
