Khaleel Ahmed to Clive Madande
A deceptive slower one, shade outside off on a length, Madande misses to connect this one to the off side and gets beaten. The ball dies before reaching to Sanju Samson who gets a bad bounce and deflects the ball to the first slip. An overthrow at the runner's end which allows them to complete the run.

Washington Sundar to Clive Madande
OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Sundar gets his third wicket and breaks the crucial partnership! Washington Sundar again keeps this one away from the batter, outside off and full, turning a bit in with the turn, Clive Madande moves across off and goes for an aerial slog shot but mistimes it in the air towards deep mid-wicket. Rinku Singh with his safest pair of hands manages to keep it simple and takes a good catch. Also, Washington Sundar still hasn't conceded a single boundary as yet.

FOUR! Just over short third and four more! Back of a length and outside off, Dion Myers hops on the bounce and slices it over the short third fielder for a boundary. Fortuitous though!

Avesh Khan to Dion Myers
FOUR! Dion Myers has played some really good strokes here! Surely one of the positives Zimbabwe will take it from this fixture. Avesh struggles with the line and offers width outside off on a length, Dion Myers climbs on the bounce and gets it on the up, and between short third and backward point for a boundary.

Avesh Khan to Dion Myers
A huge appeal for LBW but it is clearly going way down the leg side. As expected, 'No' says the umpire. However, just for the formalities' sake, Avesh sends it upstairs. Avesh spears in a yorker right on the base of the front boot. Myers tries to flick it away but misses. The ball pings on his boot and deflects before running down to deep fine. UltraEdge shows nothing but the Ball Tracking confirms that the ball and sliding down the leg side big time. NOT OUT. INDIA WIN BY 23 RUNS AND TAKE THE LEAD BY 2-1 IN THE SERIES.
