Team India are currently doing well in the T20 World Cup, sitting atop in the Super 12 Group B points table after winning matches against Pakistan, Netherlands and Bangladesh. They lost only one match against South Africa and in order to fix their spot in the semi-finals, they would need to win the match against Zimbabwe, scheduled on Sunday (November 6).
It’s a must win game for India because incase they don’t, then their chances would depend on net run-rate depending on the results from South Africa-Netherlands and Pakistan-Bangladesh matches, which are also scheduled on Sunday.
