June 18, 2016  16:55


Zim 33-1 (5 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Jasprit Bumrah is called into the attack, replacing Unadkat, who bowled just one over with the new ball.

Chibhabha makes his intents clear rightaway as he comes down the track and lofts the pacer over long-on for his first four.

The pacer then bowls a good yorker which Chibhabha keeps out before taking a single and Masakadza gets one from the last ball.

Change of ends for Unadkat, who takes over from Dhawan, who is taken off after an expensive first over.

Masakadza keen to continue his positive approach. He lofts a slower ball from Unadkat and hits it high over long-on for a six, his second of the innings.

Two balls later Masakadza takes on the short ball from the pacer as he pulls it over square leg for the second six of the over.

Another good over for the hosts as Unadkat goes for 13 in his second over as Zimbabwe race to 33 for no loss in four overs.

Bumrah checks Zimbabwe's flying start with the wicket of Masakadza, who is caught behind by wicketkeeper Dhoni. The right-hander, who smashed 25 from 15 balls, shuffles across and tries to paddle it fine on the leg side but gets a top edge and is caught behind.

Bumrah bowls a good first delivery first up to new batsman Richmond Mutumbami, who is beaten outside the off-stump as he has a nervous poke.

There is a huge appeal for a catch down the leg side against Mutumbami but the umpire turns it down as Bumrah ends a superb over, a wicket maiden.
