Gill hits fifty; India set for big score
July 10, 2024 17:38India 130-2 (16 ovs) vs Zim | Scorecard
Left-arm spinner Masakadza back for another spell. Gill hits the first ball to long-off for a single before Gaikwad makes room to play another cracking inside out shot over the off-side for a four.
A single each to the two batters before Gaikwad misses the sweep off a full delivery down the leg side.
Gaikwad comes down the track to drive the last ball to long-off for two runs to get nine from the 15th over.
India are 127/2 in 15 overs, with Gill on 54 from 40 balls and Gaikwad on 26 from 15 balls. Both will look to go on the attack in the last five overs and take India close to the 200-run mark.
Pacer Ngarava comes back from the other end. He does exceedingly well to concede just three runs in the 16th over, looking to bowl full and straight.
The tight overs have somewhat dented India's hopes of getting to 200.
