India 142-4 (17 ovs ) vs Zim 170-6 | Scorecard

Madziva comes into the attack. He struggles with his control, bowling two successive wides to Dhoni, who then takes one on the off-side.

Pandey pulls a short ball through midwicket for a four to race to 43 from 29 balls and then takes a single as he chases a very wide delivery.

Dhoni clips the fifth ball to deep midwicket for two runs as India keep collecting the runs without any problem at all. A single from the last ball makes it 12 runs from the 16th over with India needing 41 from last four overs.

When the boundaries are not coming Dhoni ensures that the scoreboard keeps moving with ones and twos. With a young Pandey for company, Dhoni is doing well to convert the singles into twos with some swift running between the wickets.

Tiripano follows it up with two wides down the leg side to Pandey, a poor line considering that fine leg is inside the circle.

Another wide down the leg side to Dhoni as the keeper fumbles to give away two more extra runs.

12 runs from the over takes India to 142 for four in 17 overs, with 29 needed from three overs for victory.
