Team India's Day Out In Zimbabwe

The young guns of Team India sustained an embarrassing defeat at the hands of Zimbabwe in the first T20I of the series. Sikandar Raza's high-spirited Zimbabwe comfortably defeated the 'Men in Blue by 13 runs and gained the required momentum. India on the other hand were determined to return the favour and they left Raza's side begging for answers in the second T20I. Courtesy of a blistering 100 from Abhishek Sharma, India registered 234 runs in their quota of 20 overs and defeated Zimbabwe by 100 runs.

T20 World Cup winning trio, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shivam Dube and Sanju Samson joined the Indian Cricket team ahead of the third match. The young guns of India later enjoyed a breather as they travelled to a wildlife sanctuary in Zimbabwe. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) shared a short video from the Team's day out.
