Dynamic India thrash a besieged Zimbabwe- pockets the series 3-0, Zimbabwe v India 3rd ODI Statistical Review

Dynamic India thrash a besieged Zimbabwe- pockets the series 3-0, Zimbabwe v India 3rd ODI Statistical Review: Zimbabwe had no space to breathe as they were thrashed soundly by a determined Indian side that was a class apart when compared to the listless Zimbabwe side in all departments. The 83 run victory by India was remarkable per se as many expected that Indian would be complacent after pocketing up the series earlier.

Batting first India were powered by the brilliance of debutant Manish Pandey and Kedar Jadhav. Jadhav got to his first hundred sensationally. In the end India posted a decent 276 on the board. Chasing 277, Zimbabwe never looked like crossing the finishing line as they fumbled and staggered right through and if not for the expertise of Chibhabha they would have well lost by an even more humiliating margin. At the end of it all, Zimbabwe got bundled up for a dismal 193 runs and India triumphantly made the series cup their possession.
