Here are the updates of IND vs ZIM Playing XI:
In place of Deepak Chahar, India substituted Shardul Thakur for the eleven that defeated the opposition by 10 wickets in the prior encounter. In the first ODI of the series, Chahar had a successful comeback from his injury, and he was named Player of the Match for taking 3 for 27 in seven overs.
The Zimbabwean team underwent two changes. Tadiwanashe Marumani was replaced as the opener by Takudzwanashe Kaitano, and left-arm seamer Richard Ngarava, who failed to pick up a wicket but still scored a critical 34 runs with the bat, was replaced by seamer Tanaka Chivanga.
Rahul declared at the toss that the surface was “harder than a couple of days before,” but he anticipated that his bowlers will take advantage of the slight nip in the air brought on by the early start in Harare.
As a result of their bowlers dismissing Zimbabwe for 189 in game one and their openers successfully chasing down the target in the 31st over, India enjoys a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.
