India Hammer Zimbabwe by 72 Runs; Abhishek, Hardik Shine
Defending champions India thrashed Zimbabwe by 72 runs in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Super Eights at MA Chidambaram Stadium on Thursday.
Blazing fifties from Abhishek Sharma (55) and Hardik Pandya (50*) powered India to a record total of 256/4, featuring 17 sixes.
Arshdeep Singh then starred with 3-24 to seal the emphatic win. Brian Bennett’s valiant 97* helped Zimbabwe reach 184/6, but the target proved far beyond reach.
The victory boosts India’s net run rate and sets up a virtual knockout clash against West Indies in Kolkata.
