T20 World Cup 2022: India vs Zimbabwe, Super 12 – Dafanews Match Preview

India almost has one foot in the semifinal doors and they would want to confirm it when they will take on Zimbabwe in their final clash of the Super 12 stage at the iconic MCG on Sunday. A win will seal the deal for the Rohit Sharma-led and they would want nothing less than that.

We take a look at the current form, head-to-head, players to look out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

Current form of India: W L W W L

India has been right on the money in the recent past. KL Rahul was able to get back into form against Bangladesh but the form of Rohit Sharma is still a concern. SKY and Kohli have batted brilliantly for the team while the bowlers have also done a decent job in the ongoing T20I showpiece.

Current form of Zimbabwe: L L W NR W

Zimbabwe had stunned Pakistan by one run earlier in the tournament but since then they have lost against Bangladesh and the Netherlands. The Craig Erine-led team could only manage 117 runs on the board in their previous game and they will need to pull up their socks.

Head to Head: Matches: 7, Won by India: 5, Won by Zimbabwe: 2.

India clearly holds the advantage against Zimbabwe in the head-to-head battle.

Players to look out for: Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, and Arshdeep Singh will hold the key for India.

Craig Ervine, Sikander Raza, Sean Williams, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava are going to hold the key for Zimbabwe.

India squad:

Rohit Sharma (C), KL Rahul (VC), Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant (WK), Dinesh Karthik (WK), Hardik Pandya, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Axar Patel, Mohammed Shami (in for Jasprit Bumrah), Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Harshal Patel, Arshdeep Singh

Reserves: Shreyas Iyer, Ravi Bishnoi, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Siraj.

Zimbabwe squad:

Craig Ervine (c), Ryan Burl, Regis Chakabva, Tendai Chatara, Bradley Evans, Luke Jongwe, Clive Madande, Wessly Madhevere, Wellington Masakadza, Tony Munyonga, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava, Sikandar Raza, Milton Shumba, Sean Williams.
