India 121-7 (18 ovs) vs Zim 145-7 | Scorecard

Raza will continue as he decides to take a gamble by keeping himself on. He starts with two dot balls to Axar Patel, who then gets a single. No boundaries in the over as Raza gives away just five runs, leaving India to get 32 runs from the last three overs for victory.

Mpofu, who went for 12 runs in his first over, comes back. Patel turns the first ball on the leg side for two runs but can't get the second one away as the pacer foxes him with clever change of pace.

Another slower bouncer this time Patel pulls it to deep midwicket but only for a single.

Mpofu makes it worse for India with the wicket of Samson, the last recognised batsman for India, Samson, who made 19, hits it straight into the hands of the fielder at long-on as India slip to 117 for seven, with 29 needed from 14 balls for victory.

Patel gets a much-needed boundary from the next delivery as he steers a full delivery past short thirdman. But he misses the next ball, which is again full and wide.

India need a few boundaries, with 25 needed from the last two overs for victory.
