5th T20I: Sanju Samson’s 58 & Shivam Dube’s Cameo Powers India To 167/6 Against Zimbabwe
Harare Sports Club: Vice-captain Sanju Samson smashed his second T20I fifty, while Shivam Dube hit a quick cameo of 26 runs in 12 deliveries at the end to power India to a competitive 167/6 in the fifth and final T20I against Zimbabwe at the Harare Sports Club on Sunday.
Samson was at his languid best, hitting a boundary and four maximums in his 45-ball 58. He also shared a 65-run stand off 56 balls for the fourth wicket with Riyan Parag, to bail India out of trouble after losing their top three in power-play.
Dube’s cameo of 26, along with some lofty hits at the end from Rinku Singh took India past 160, as 30 runs came off the last two overs. For Zimbabwe, Blessing Muzarabani was the pick of bowlers with 2/19 in his four overs, while their fielding, despite good catches being taken, had some lapses – three dropped chances, along with some fumbles.
