Throw it India he chose to hit vs Zimbabwe

Shubman Gill called it right for the third T20I in a row and India chose to beat Zimbabwe in Harare.

That left them strong until Washington Sundar, who was dropped at number 8. It meant that two of the top four – Jaiswal, Gill, Abhishek Sharma and Ruturaj Gaikwad – would have to settle for No. 3 and No. 4. India have selected four suitable bowling options with Abhishek and Dube likely to cover four overs.

“The field is not as low as the second game and not as wet as the first game,” Raza commented when the toss was thrown.

The series is tied 1-1 after Zimbabwe got off to a winning start before India bounced back with a big win on Sunday.
