Ruturaj Gaikwad: In my first 15 balls, I didn't even middle a single ball. Thought the wicket was tough. Chat with Abhishek was to stitch a partnership, in the end it worked well. He chose the right bowlers, took on spin well. Talked about holding our shape as it was a two-paced wicket. Great innings in the context of the game. Bowlers just need to hold Test lengths.

Anirudh Bhatia: "First 7 overs: 40-1 (1*6, 3*4) Next 3 overs: 34-0 (1*6, 4*4) Last 10 overs: 160-1 (12*6, 13*4)

2:33pm 82 off the last 30 balls. Last ten overs went for 160! Rinku gives Abhishek a big hug on the way back, they were the reason for India to turbocharge after a rather sluggish start. Raza tried to get a few chop-out overs but the takedown of Myers and Masakadza signalled a storm that would blow the bowlers away. Zimbabwe would probably have had a great outing with bat if they get close to this mammoth total. Find out if they can with Karthik

Jongwe to Singh, SIX, Belted down the ground. Wide full toss. Man, the missed yorkers have bled runs, this one was pace on, Rinku got on one knee and hit the sightscreen. Finishes with 48 off 22.
