India vs Zimbabwe Match Preview

Defending champions India enter the contest under immense pressure following a heavy 76-run defeat to South Africa in their opening Super 8 match. Suryakumar Yadav’s team struggled to find their rhythm in Ahmedabad, making a victory against Zimbabwe essential to repair their heavily dented net run rate and remain in the tournament.

Zimbabwe, led by Sikandar Raza, are also desperate for a positive result. Despite impressing in the earlier group stages by upsetting teams like Australia and Sri Lanka, they suffered a massive 107-run loss to the West Indies in their first Super 8 game. Both squads will view the traditionally spin-friendly conditions at Chepauk as an opportunity to rebuild their momentum
