IND vs ZIM: Sikander Raza almost demolished India

ZIM VS IND

In the 3rd ODI, Zimbabwe gave tough competition to India although, they lost the game by just 13 runs. By winning this match, India whitewashed Zimbabwe in the series. Even though Zimbabwe lost the match but Sikander Raza won the hearts. 

India won the toss again but this time, KL Rahul opted for bat. India started slowly and the first wicket fell in 15th over on 63 runs. Shubhman Gill was absolutely brilliant, he scored his maiden ton(130 in only 97 balls) and also made the highest individual score for India against Zimbabwe.

Ishan Kishan was also impressive, he got an unfortunate run-out on 50. Brad Evans took his best bowling figures of 5-54 in 10 overs and India set the good total of 289 in 50 overs.

Zimbabwe was never expected to even compete while chasing 290 but they did. Sean Williams played impressive knock of 45 in 46 deliveries before the outstanding century of Sikander Raza, who made 115 in 95 balls. At one stage, Zimbabwe was looking in comfort zone but when they lost Brad Evans, all responsibility fell on Raza and in the end, they lost the match by 13 runs.
