Zimbabwe and India will face each other in the 2nd T20 match of the three match series at the Harare Sports Club in Harare
India come into this match full of confidence after a comfortable win in the previous game. Their batters chased the target with ease, while the bowlers put in an impressive performance to keep Zimbabwe under pressure throughout the innings.
Zimbabwe, meanwhile, will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing defeat in the first match. Their batters could not build good partnerships, and the bowlers did not have enough runs to defend. They will be hoping for a better all-round performance in this game.

The problems for Zimbabwe have continued. Before this series, they lost a T20I series against Bangladesh, and they have also started this series in a disappointing way with both bat and ball. Playing at home, they will be looking to improve in all departments.
The batting did not go as planned, as in-form batter Brian Bennett was dismissed by Mayank Yadav on the very first ball of the match. Things did not improve after that, with 3 of the top 4 batters getting out without reaching double figures.
Wessly Madhevere was the highest scorer with 39 runs, while Tadiwanashe Marumani added 27 runs lower down the order. Ryan Burl also looked in good touch before getting out to Ravi Bishnoi. The team will be hoping for a much better effort from the top order in the next match.
With the ball, Zimbabwe did not have enough runs to defend. Bowling against aggressive batters like Abhishek Sharma and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was never going to be easy, and that was clear in the first match itself.
If they want to put in a better bowling performance, they will have to find a way to stop India's top order early. The bowlers have a lot of work to do if they want to help Zimbabwe return to winning ways.

India finally registered the much-needed win after going winless against Ireland and England in the shortest format. The victory also came as a huge relief for skipper Shreyas Iyer, as it was his first win as captain of the Indian side.
They were chasing a target of 125 runs, which was their easiest chase in the last three series, and they made full use of the opportunity. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi scored his first international fifty off just 19 balls, while Ishan Kishan added 35 runs and skipper Shreyas Iyer scored 28 runs as India completed the chase with 6.4 overs to spare.
India also made an excellent start with the ball. Mayank Yadav took the wicket of Brian Bennett on the very first ball of the match, and the wickets kept falling until the 13th over.
Mayank Yadav finished with 2 wickets, Prince Yadav also picked up 2 wickets, while Shivam Dube and Ravi Bishnoi picked up 1 wicket each. Even though the bowling attack lacks experience, the bowlers delivered an impressive performance and will be looking to continue the same form in this match.

The pitch at Harare Sports Club, Harare has generally been a balanced one for T20 cricket. The surface usually produces an even contest between bat and ball. The average first-innings score at this venue is 155, while the average second-innings score is 133.
The historical record at Harare Sports Club is fairly even, with 45 wins for teams batting first and 37 wins for teams chasing in 84 T20 matches. However, the last game at this venue saw India complete a comfortable chase, suggesting the surface remained good for batting throughout.
India come into this match with plenty of confidence after an impressive win in the first T20I. Their batters and bowlers both performed well, and they will be looking to carry that momentum into this match. Zimbabwe, on the other hand, will be hoping to recover after losing the opening game.
They have players who can make a difference, but they will need a much better performance with both bat and ball if they want to level the series.
After a better all-round performance in the first match, India look slightly ahead going into this match.
Back India to win this match.
