3rd ODI: India vs Zimbabwe Preview and Live Score Update - 28 July 2013

With the 2-0 lead of the 5 ODI series India would take on Zimbabwe in the 3rd ODI Cricket Match Today. India vs Zimbabwe 3rd ODI played at Harare Sports Club, Harare on Sunday July 28, 2013. The match schedule to be start at 09:30 local time. Below find the Live Scorecard update for IND vs ZIM 3rd ODI match.

With India just one victory away from taking an unbeatable lead, Zimbabwe will be under pressure to keep the series alive. The Indian batting unit has looked solid and well-formed. Virat Kohli scored a ton in the 1st ODI and Shikar Dhawan hit a Ton in the 2nd ODI at Harare. Indian bowling units also pretty well with the young shoulders. They are restricted the Zimbabwe batting line up very well in the last two matches. Particularly Jaidev Unadkat who picked up 4 wickets and put pressure on the hosts. Dhinesh Karthick also in very good form. He was ably supported by Shikar Dhawan and their massive partnership helped India pile on a match-winning score of 294 after losing four wickets early on.

In all fairness, Zimbabwe have fought quite well in the first two games but have in fact been outplayed by a much better team. The openers have looked in good touch with Sikandar Raza hitting a classy 82 in the first game and Vusi Sibanda making a fine 55 in the second. They have given Zimbabwe good starts but unfortunately, the middle order has failed to capitalize on it. Prosper Utseya, one of Zimbabwe's most experienced players, struck an aggressive 52 and along with Elton Chigumbura put up a fighting stand in the last game. However, the assault came too late as by that time the Indians had already got a firm grip over the match. They need their batsmen to fire in unison instead of individual performances and if the likes of Sean Williams and Brendan Taylor come to the party, Zimbabwe will not find it difficult to build up in the middle overs.
