KL Rahul and VVS Laxman
Reflexes
- India beat Zimbabwe by 10 wickets in the first ODI
- Team India leads 1-0 in three-match ODI series
- The India team can enter the second ODI without any changes.
IND vs ZIM 2nd ODI Playing 11: The second match of the three-match ODI series between India and Zimbabwe will be played in Harare on Saturday. The India team took a 1-0 lead in the series after winning the first match by 10 wickets. In the second match, the Indian team will go with the intention of winning the series. Surely the team has arrived after winning the first game, so there may not be any change in the round of 16. Trainer VVS Laxman and captain KL Rahul would definitely like to go with the winning combination. At the same time, some experiments can be seen in the combination of the team.
In the first match, except for the starters from India, no one had a chance to bat. The pair of Shubman Gill and Shikhar Dhawan shared 192 unbeaten runs to give the team a 10-wicket win. Captain KL Rahul himself returned to the team after a long time, but did not open the innings. At the same time, he was also missing Ishaan Kishan, who he is often seen opening for. Sanju Samson played as a goalkeeper batsman in this match.
Who will play at No.4?
Captain Rahul is not opening and the Gill-Dhawan pair can be seen opening the entrances once again. Deepak Hooda or Captain KL Rahul himself can be seen at number three. At the same time, one of these two players can be seen at number four. After this, there is talk of the fifth and sixth number, then Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson are the two contenders for this position. Ishaan is a left-handed hitter and Sanju is a right-handed hitter. It will be a matter that will be seen depending on the situation. Importance has often been given to the left-right combination in Team India. Then in the lower order you have power hitters like Axar Patel and Deepak Chahar who can make useful runs reaching number 7-8.
Here are the likely 11 players from both teams.
India: Shubman Gill, Shikhar Dhawan, Deepak Hooda, KL Rahul (c), Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson (week), Axar Patel, Deepak Chahar, Kuldeep Yadav, Pranand Krishna, Mohammad Siraj.
Zimbabwe: Innocent Kaya, Tadiwanashe Marumani/Takudjawanase Caetano, Wesley Madhevere, Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Regis Chakabwa (c & wk), Ryan Burl, Luke Jongwe, Brad Evans, Richard Ngarwa, Victor Nyuchi.
