11.24am 25 overs, Zimbabwe were 106 for 3 and they are 126 all out. At the halfway mark it looked like Sibanda had weathered the top-order wobble to steer them towards a competitive total. But Chahal struck in consecutive deliveries and soon Sibanda threw his wicket away and Zimbabwe went down a slippery slope from there. Sibanda had been pulling and cutting the short balls well and looked the most comfortable batsman today, wonder what he must be thinking after that slog. Shashank's cocktails will start the Indian chase soon...

An update: Sean Williams did not bat because of a finger injury he picked up after the toss. And he went for scans earlier.

Chetan Parate: "I thought when Sibanda was playing at his 50s at that time score look around 225 Except him no one contributed in team. I think Zim made 100 runs less here while looking to position when Sibanda was playing."

Shripad: "Once again it is good to see that all five bowlers have shared the wickets."
