July 14, 2015  12:56

 India 25-0 (5 ovs) vs Zim | Scorecard

The ball coming on to the bat nicely as Rahane punches the second ball of Neville Madziva's first over through the covers for three runs. It is a called a no-ball as the bowler overstepped but Vijay is unable to make most of the free hit and hits it straight to the fielder at mid-off.

Vijay gets a single from the third ball before Rahane sees off the rest of the over as India reach 12 for no loss in two overs.

In the next over, Vijay turns the first ball from Tiripano on the leg side for a single. Rahane drives the third ball straight and looks to have found the gap but Malcolm Waller dives full length to his left to stop what looked like a certain boundary. Just another run in the over courtesy of a wide as Tiripano concedes just two in his second over.

Madziva gives Rahane some width as the right-hander cuts it over point for two runs and the next ball is hit through square leg for two more runs.

The last ball is driven perfectly through the covers as Rahane gets his first boundary of the innings.

Vijay is beaten by Tiripano as he gets one to move away slightly before he comes down the track to the next delivery but is unable to find the gap through the off-side.

Two singles from the last two deliveries as India reach 25 for no loss after five overs.
