    0.3 bowled him, lovely nip-backer from a length. Kaia gets into a firm front-foot press, but his front foot hasn't really gone that far forward. Looks to drive on the up from there, probably to loft down the ground, and ends up with a big gap for the ball to sneak through and knock back his off stump. Not dissimilar to his dismissal yesterday 4/1
    16.3 Madhevere dances down and plays all around it. His struggle ends. Bishnoi went shortish and fired it at 100ks, goes straight on and onto top of leg stump uninterrupted. 117/8
    2.6 gone, Mukesh has two wickets in two overs for all the punishment he's taken. Length ball, a bit of inward nip into the stumps, and it wasn't quite short enough for the cleared-front-leg leg-side hoick. Sneaks under the bat, and hits the top of middle stump 40/2
    3.2 length ball wide of off stump, and Myers could have hit that anywhere, but he's hit it straight to the man at short cover. Flat-bats it, and did that stop on the batter? Maybe. He's looking at the spot where the ball hit his bat, and it's low down, near the toe-end. First-ball duck for Zimbabwe's No. 4 41/3
    3.6 oh man, this is such a difficult surface when the ball is banged into the pitch. Raza is out to an unplayable ball. Smacks the pitch with a bouncer, and Raza, stepping across to hook, realises the ball is skidding through much quicker than expected, and he makes a late attempt to fall to the off side and evade the ball. But he leaves his gloves in the way, and pops a catch behind the wicket 46/4
    9.4 gone, Sundar strikes, Campbell fails to control a slog sweep. Length ball going with the angle from outside off, and maybe a bit of extra bounce. He was a little late in getting into position, still not fully down on his back knee, and ends up top-edging high in the air for Bishnoi to catch, moving to his right at deep backward square leg 72/5
    10.3 Pinned in front. Given out lbw. A chat between the batters and review. Ball was fired in on a shortish length, 100ks, Madande was well inside the crease. Hopped up with jammed feet trying to punch it to long-on. Hit flush on the pad. Three reds, hitting off after turning in a bit. 73/6
    11.1 This time Jurel pings the stumps at the non-striker's with the batter not in the frame. Never a run in that as Masakadza nudged it a few feet to the diagonal right. Non-striker took off and the partner had to follow. Jurel hit the pitch and trimmed the bails 76/7
    18.4 Wow, that's good field placement. Somewhere between deep third and deep-backward point and that's exactly where the ball goes. Was full and wide, Jongwe's square drive was aerial and snagged 134/10
    17.4 Skied. Sundar takes it at mid-on and grins end to end. Shortish ball angling in sharply towards off, Muzarabani made room but couldn't cope with the angle or the bounce as he pulled. India on course for a 100+ run win 123/9
