Players to watch out for
Abhishek Sharma: After getting off for a duck on debut, the Indian opener turned things around in his second match, smashing a century off just 46 deliveries to set up a mammoth total for India. He is just one of 10 batters in the world to have hit 50 sixes or more this year and could very well add to his tally once again in this game as India look to take a lead in the series. Overall, Abhushek has smashed 584 T20 runs in 2024 at a staggering strike rate of 202.8.
Brian Bannett: The 20-year-old all-rounder showed off his skills with the bat in the previous game with his cameo of a 9-ball 28, that included three sixes and a four. he was undone by his own greediness as he looked to smash Mukesh Sharma for another six after hitting two in two. Overall, He has 367 runs in T20Is at a strike rate of 138.49. Not to forget, he is a handy off-spin bowler as well, as he showed especially in the first T20I where he of Abhishek in the first over after contributing 22 off 15 with the bat.
Ravi Bishnoi: Zimbabwe have not been able to pick the leg-spinner at all. The pace and the trajectory at which Bishnoi has bowled this series has bamboozled the Zimbabwean batters. His numbers, too, are simply staggering: 6 wickets at 4, economy rate 3 and strike rate 8. Out of the 48 deliveries he has bowled this series, 34 have been googlies and that has fetched him four of his six wickets. Expect more of the same from the leggie in the series.
