India put on a decent total of 167 runs despite losing their top 3 early. Samson's half-century and cameos from Dube and Rinku Singh helped them recover.
Zimbabwe's chase started poorly as they lost two early wickets to Mukesh Kumar. They fought back with a good partnership between Myers and Marumani but then lost wickets in clusters, including a controversial no-ball dismissal of Myers.
Raza's run-out hurt them further, and despite a late cameo from Faraz Akram, Zimbabwe fell short. Mukesh Kumar picked up four as he cleaned up at the end to hand India a comprehensive victory in the match and clinch the five match series by 4-1.
Washinton Sundar continues at the other end.
OUT! India has made the crucial break through as Marumani departs. An attempted sweep goes wrong and Sundar's delivery hits the batter plumb on the pads. The umpire's finger went up immediately and Marumani departs.

Mukesh Kumar returns at the other end and strikes again!!
Mavuta's first ball was a full toss outside off, and Samson didn't miss out.
Jaiswal and Shubman Gill open the batting for India. Raza opens the bowling for Zimbabwe.
Disaster strikes early for India! Jaiswal is bowled by Raza for just 12 runs off 5 balls. The batsman tried to punch the ball back to the bowler but ended up getting cleaned up in the very first over of the match.
Following two consecutive sixes Jaiswal is gone.
