IND vs ZIM 4th T20I: Jaiswal named Player of the Match
"I really enjoyed my batting today. I had my plans for different bowlers. The ball was coming on when it was new and as it got old, it was quite slow. I enjoyed batting with Shubman. Initially I was thinking to take on the bowlers and as the innings progressed, I thought how to build the innings and stay till the end," said Yashasvi Jaiswal after the game.
IND vs ZIM Live: Jaiswal's solid knock
Yashasvi Jaiswal remains not out at the score of 93 off 53 balls. This was a superb knock from the southpaw as kept the Zimbabwe bowlers under pressure from the word go. Jaiswal smashed 13 fours and two sixes.
IND vs ZIM Live: India win!!!
There is the win for India. Jaiswal pulled the short ball away for a crunchy four and India bagged the game by 10 wickets. They also seal the series 3-1 with a match to go.
IND vs ZIM Live: Fifty for Shubman Gill!
Shubman Gill raced to his half-century in 35 balls. India need two to win now. They are only a couple of hits away from a series-clinching win.
IND 151/0 (15)
IND vs ZIM Live: 10-run over
India need only 25 off the remaining 42 balls. Now the only thing that remains to be seen is whether Jaiswal manages to score a ton.
IND 128/0 (13)
IND vs ZIM Live: India need 35 in 48
Mere formality remains in this game as India need only 35 off 48 to register a series-clinching win over Zimbabwe. Yashasvi Jaiswal has slowed down a bit while Shubman Gill has accelerated, of late. India continue to stay on top.
IND 118/0 (12)IND vs ZIM Live: Runs keep coming for India
Nine came off the third over of Richard Ngarava. Yashasvi Jaiswal had hit a six over deep backward square leg on the first ball of the over. He is now batting on 73 off 40 balls. Jaiswal could score a century too if keeps going like this.
IND 115/0 (11)IND vs ZIM Live: That was close!!!
Yashasvi Jaiswal could have been run out! Shubman Gill nudged the Sikandar Raza delivery on the leg side and decided to take a second run. Jaiswal, who was running at the non-striker's end, would have gone for all money, had Raza's throw hit the stumps. But it missed, and Jaiswal survived.
IND 106/0 (10)
IND vs ZIM Live: FOUR!
That is a wonderfully timed shot from Yashasvi Jaiswal. It was bowled fuller from Sikandar Raza and Jaiswal drove it beautifully down the ground. Raza got his right hand on the ball but so good was the timing from Jaiswal that the ball ran away for a four down the ground.
IND 79/0 (8.3)
IND vs ZIM Live: Fifty for Jaiswal!
Yashasvi Jaiswal slammed his half-century in 29 balls. He got there with a stylish four through the extra cover region. Jaiswal also hit a four off the final ball of the over that was bowled by Sikandar Raza. India need 82 runs in 78 balls.
IND 71/0 (7)
IND vs ZIM Live: End of powerplay!
India are right in control of the chase at the moment. They scored 61 runs in the powerplay and didn't lose any wicket. The side's scoring rate is also above 10, something that Zimbabwe lacked during their batting. India need 92 runs in 84 balls.
IND 61/0 (6)IND vs ZIM Live: Good bowling
After conceding 15 runs in his first over, Richard Ngarava has made a brilliant comeback. He has bowled a three-run over despite bowling four balls to Yashasvi Jaiswal.
IND 56/0 (5)IND vs ZIM Live: India need 100 more to win
This chase has been a cakewalk for far for both the Indian openers, especially Jaiswal who is batting at a strike rate of 222.22. After playing 18 balls, Jaiswal has scored 40 runs.
IND 53/0 (4)IND vs ZIM Live: Jaiswal on fire!
This is some terrific hitting from Yashasvi Jaiswal. Blessing Muzarabani was hit for 12 runs before Tendai Chatara was smashed for 16 in the very next over. Yashasvi Jaiswal was the wrecker-in-chief. He is batting on 31 off 13 balls.
IND 43/0 (3)IND vs ZIM Live: The chase begins!
Yashasvi Jaiswal went all guns blazing in the first over bowled by Richard Ngarava. He slammed a total of three fours in the over that fetched India 15 runs.
IND 15/0 (1)IND vs ZIM Live: Zimbabwe post 152 for 7!
A wicket for Khaleel Ahmed on the final delivery. He started the over with a wicket and ended with a second. Only five runs came in the over. Zimbabwe have crossed the 150-run mark. They have got a fighting total on the board. The onus is now on their bowlers to make it count.
ZIM 152/7 (20)IND vs ZIM Live: OUT!
Khaleel Ahmed strikes on the very first ball of the last over. It was a slower ball from Khaleel outside the leg stump and Dion Myers edged it while trying to play it on the leg side. Zimbabwe are still three short of the 150-run mark.
IND vs ZIM Live: OUT!
Maiden international wicket for Tushar Deshpande and he has got the big man Sikandar Raza. It was a well-disguised slowe ball from Deshpande and Raza, who was batting well so far, eventually got outfoxed. The Zimbabwe captain departed after scoring 46 off 28.
ZIM 141/5 (18.3)IND vs ZIM Live: 8 came off it
Ravi Bishnoi bowled one poor delivery and paid big for it. It was bowled on the leg side and the ball ran away for a four. Zimbabwe got a total of five off it as it was a wide as well. A total of 9 runs came off the over as Bishnoi bowled well otherwise.
ZIM 138/4 (18)IND vs ZIM Live: Raza on fire!
Sikandar Raza slammed Khaleel Ahmed for a six and two fours in the over that also had a no-ball. A total of 18 runs came off the over and Zimbabwe look all set to cross the 150-run mark. They should target to cross 160 from this point.
ZIM 129/4 (17)
IND vs ZIM Live: 13-run over
Washington Sundar leaked 13 runs in his final over. He returned figures of 1 for 32 in his quota of four overs. Sikandar Raza is fighting well from one end. Zimbabwe need at least 150 on the board to put up a fight as the pitch is good to bat on.
ZIM 111/4 (16)IND vs ZIM Live: Run-out!
A brilliant throw from Ravi Bishoi and Johnathan Campbell gets run out on it. Sikandar Raza nudged the ball on the leg side and tried to steal a single before reversing the decision. Bishnoi ran to his right, collected the ball and hit the bull's eye at the non-striker's end.
ZIM 96/4 (14.4)IND vs ZIM Live: OUT!
Brian Bennett is gone! Washington Sundar gets the wicket. The spinner continues his good form in Zimbabwe. It was a short ball outside off stump and Bennett hit it right into the hands of Yahsasvi Jaiswal at cover.
ZIM 92/3 (13.4)IND vs ZIM Live: A costly drop?
Ruturaj Gaikwad dropped the catch of Brian Bennett on the fifth ball of the 11th over. Bennett got a leading edge over the cover but Gaikwad, who was running to his back, dropped the chance. Is it going to cost India big? Only time could tell that. Shivam Dube bowled the 12th over and conceded 12 runs.
ZIM 79/2 (12)IND vs ZIM Live: WICKET!
Wessly Madhevere is out for 25 off 24 balls. He pulled a Shivam Dube delivery on the square leg where Rinku Singh took a really good running catch. Two wickets in quick time for India and what would make them happier is the fact that both the set Zimbabwe openers are back to the hut now.
ZIM 67/2 (10)
IND vs ZIM Live: OUT!
It is a much-needed breakthrough for India and guess who provides it. It is Abhishek Sharma! He scored his maiden international century in the second T20I and now strikes for the first time in international cricket with the wicket of Tadiwanashe Marumani, who departs for 32 off 31.
ZIM 63/1 (8.4)IND vs ZIM Live: Zimbabwe in command
Washington Sundar has bowled a 10-run over. Zimbabwe are scoring at 7.25 runs per over. They should put their foot on the accelerator pedal now as they have all the 10 wickets in hand. India, on the other hand, continue to search for the opening wicket.
ZIM 58/0 (8)IND vs ZIM Live: Good review!
Tadiwanashe Marumani wanted to play Ravi Bishnoi's good length ball from the back foot but misses it completely. The ball hit his pad and umpire raised his finger over the LBW appeal. Marumani reviewed and it turned out to be a right decision as the ball was found to be pitching outside the leg stump.
ZIM 45/0 (6.4)IND vs ZIM Live: End of powerplay!
This phase was dominated by Zimbabwe. Both Wessly Madhevere and Tadiwanashe Marumani have batted sensibly, with the latter also being lucky of late. India need a wicket to keep things under control.
ZIM 44/0 (6)IND vs ZIM Live: Good bowling
That is a good over from Ravi Bishnoi. He missed his line on the third ball of the over and Tadiwanashe Marumani swept it away for a four. That was the only run of the over as Bishnoi bowled five dot balls.
ZIM 39/0 (5)
IND vs ZIM Live: FOUR!
A fuller ball from Tushar Deshpande and Wessly Madhevere has lofted it to the right of the bowler for a four. It is another 10-run over for Zimbabwe. Their openers have done an admirable job so far. India, on the other hand, have been poor in bowling and fielding.
ZIM 35/0 (4)
IND vs ZIM Live: Bad luck for Khaleel
10 came off the over. Khaleel Ahmed is riding on some poor luck at the moment. First, Yashasvi Jaiswal's avoidable overthrow awarded Zimbabwe extra four runs before Shivam Dube dropped a tough chance inside the ring.
ZIM 25/0 (3)IND vs ZIM Live: Poor start for Deshpande
Tushar Deshpande was hit for two fours in his opening over. Wessly Madhevere was the batter who hit him for boundaries. The over from the CSK pacer conceded 11 runs.
ZIM 15/0 (2)
IND vs ZIM Live: Match begins -
Khaleel Ahmed got some really good bounce off the surface in the first over. He bowled a poor delivery after bowling four good balls on trot and was hit for a four by Wessly Madhevere. Khaleel sprayed it outside the leg stump to Madhevere and the batter glanced it away for a boundary.
ZIM 4/0 (1)IND vs ZIM Live: Here are the playing XIs -
India: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill(c), Abhishek Sharma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sanju Samson(w), Rinku Singh, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Tushar Deshpande, Khaleel Ahmed
Zimbabwe: Wessly Madhevere, Tadiwanashe Marumani, Brian Bennett, Dion Myers, Sikandar Raza(c), Johnathan Campbell, Faraz Akram, Clive Madande(w), Richard Ngarava, Blessing Muzarabani, Tendai Chatara
IND vs ZIM Live: Masakadaza out, Akram in for Zimbabwe
"We wanted to bat first. The wicket tends to get slower and slower. We've got a vision for 2026, the only way to get better is quality game time. Hopefully our top-three can click. Our idea is for all three departments to perform. The boys are hungry. Wellington Masakadaza misses out. Faraz Akram comes in," said Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza.
IND vs ZIM Live: Deshpande makes his debut -
"We'll bowl first. Looks like a fresh wicket. Hopefully there's going to be something in it for the fast bowlers. The death bowling is where we can improve. We got a little complacent (in the previous match). Tushar Deshpande makes his debut in place of Avesh Khan," said Shubman Gill.
IND vs ZIM Live: India opt to bowl
India captain Shubman Gill has won the toss and opted to bowl first against Zimbabwe in the fourth T20I. Young CSK pacer Tushar Deshpande has made his India debut in today's game.
IND vs ZIM Live: Was moving Abhishek to third spot right?
As India included Yashasvi Jaiswal in the third T20I match, they put Abhishek Sharma, the centurion in the second T20I, to bat at the third spot in the game. Abhishek scored 10 runs off 9 balls batting at the new position. Was it a right decision from Team India to change his batting spot?
IND vs ZIM Live: India's remarkable comeback
The Indian tour of Zimbabwe, 2024, has been a thrilling one, to say the least. In a stunning opener, the Chevrons ambushed the mighty Men in Blue, leaving cricket pundits slack-jawed. But India, true to their reputation, came roaring back with a vengeance. They snatched victories in the next two T20Is, flipping the script faster than a Ravindra Jadeja rocket-arm throw.
IND vs ZIM Live: Squads -
India: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill(c), Abhishek Sharma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sanju Samson(w), Rinku Singh, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, Tushar Deshpande, Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel
