Pic: Twitter India beat Zimbabwe by five wickets in the second ODI in Harare on Saturday (August 20) to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. Bowling first after winning the toss, India cleaned up the hosts for 161 in 38.1 overs as Shardul Thakur claimed three for 38. Sanju Samson (43*) then guided India home in the chase after the visitors slipped to 97 for four. The Men in Blue got off to a poor start as skipper KL Rahul, opening the innings, perished for just one. The right-handed batter tried to work one away off Victor Nyauchi, but missed the delivery and was struck in front of the stumps. Shikhar Dhawan looked good yet again, but was dismissed for 33 off 21 balls. He attempted to pull Tanaka Chivanga, but only ended up skying the ball. Shubman Gill carried on his great form, finding boundaries at will, but Ishan Kishan failed to capitalize on his opportunity. He chopped a full delivery from Luke Jongwe back onto the stumps, having made six off 13. There was some hope for Zimbabwe as Gill too perished for 33, looking to take on Jongwe. The right-handed batter top-edged a short and wide ball outside the off-stump to deep third man. Gill’s dismissal left India in some trouble at 97 for four. Deepak Hooda (25) and Samson then assured victory for India with a 56-run stand for the fifth-wicket. Samson was in great hitting form as he smashed four sixes, two of them off consecutive deliveries from Sean Williams. By the time Sikandar Raza nailed Hooda with a yorker, India were only nine away from victory.
