Deepak Hooda plays a beautiful upper cut to Jongwe for a four. The Indian batter continues to grow in confidence at the international level and this is a good sign for India as Hooda also offers off-spin bowling.
This is a beautiful cover drive from Deepak Hooda for a four. Neither the ball was on the driving length, nor the footwork was good but Hooda's hand-eye coordination is simply sensational.
A tad fuller from Nyauchi and Gill plays a beautiful cover drive for a four. The ball was not pitched on the driving length but Gill's class is special!
In the first ODI, India had bundled out Zimbabwe for 189 runs and in the second game they have dismissed them for another low total. Zimbabwe started their innings slow today to keep wickets in hand going forward but once India got the first breakthrough, there was no looking back.
First wicket for Kuldeep Yadav in the ongoing series. He has dismissed Sikandar Raza. The batter tried to create some room for himself before playing a cut short but he eventually edged one to Ishan Kishan at backward point.
