ZIM vs IND Betting Tips

  • Barinder Sran and Jasprit Bumrah will be the biggest threat in India’s bowling attack.
  • With Masakadza out of form, Zimbabwe’s batting will depend mainly on Chibhabha, Moor and Chigumbura.

Ind vs Zim 3rd T20: Who will win?

As was expected of India, after receiving a shocking defeat in the first T20, they came back strongly with a crushing 10-wicket victory over Zimbabwe in the second T20. The series has now been levelled 1-1, leaving the third match to be the decider which will be played at the Harare Sports Club on June 22. This final T20 and India’s last game on their tour of Zimbabwe is scheduled to begin at 1 PM local time.

Read on for our betting tips and match prediction on Zimbabwe vs India 2016 3rd T20I.....

Venue and Toss

Zimbabwe managed to muster just 99 off their 20 overs here in the last match. The Indian openers, later on, showed that the pitch didn't have any demons in it and was good enough to bat on. So 170 still remains to be an ideal first-innings score at this ground.

Nine of the last ten T20Is played at the Harare Sports Club have been won by the side batting first. Since the wicket is going to be better to bat on during the first-half of the match, the team that wins the toss is likely to bat first.

Zimbabwe will need to win the toss and put enough runs on the board like they did in the first T20 if they are to have any chance of winning.

If ZIM Bat First

Predicted score: Around 130

Openers Chibhabha and Masakadza will be tasked with the job of taking the team off to a flying start. The latter has had a poor ODI and T20 series so far and if he falls early, then Peter Moor will have to step in and play a good knock. Chigumbura hit a fifty in the first T20 and he can take Zimbabwe past 130, provided the top-order bats well.

Barinder Sran is almost certain to lead the bowling attack for India with either Bumrah or Kulkarni. He notched up four wickets for just ten runs in his four overs while Bumrah is currently the leading wicket-taker with five wickets to his name. The two pacers could be difficult for the Zimbabwean batsmen to tackle on a wicket that will assist the fast bowlers. Spinners Patel and Chahal will look to take advantage of the pressure created by the the faster bowlers. If Zimbabwe keep losing wickets at regular intervals, 130 should seem far away.

If IND Bat First

Predicted score: 160+

Openers KL Rahul and Mandeep Singh made short work of the chase in the last match and if the two deliver a similar performance on Wednesday, Zimbabwe could be chasing a big total. Pandey had a good hit in the first match and Rayudu has been consistent at no. 3. So if the top four bat well, India should get to 160 with Dhoni finishing off the innings.

Zimbabwe could hand over the new ball to Tiripano and Madziva who will be backed to pick up a few wickets early on. Chibhabha and Muzarabani took two wickets each in the first match and they can pose a few problems for the Indian batsmen if there is some swing. Spinners Cremer and Raza are the ones that could be targeted by the batsmen towards the end of the innings. The only way Zimbabwe can restrict India to a mediocre score is by getting their top four out cheaply.

Our Prediction

India flexed their muscles in the second match and demolished whatever little confidence Zimbabwe had gained from their victory in the first match. The visitors made a couple of changes to their bowling lineup on Monday and were delighted with the results. The hosts, on the other hand, will have to analyze their batting after the shortcomings in the last match.

Zimbabwe can beat India if they replicate their performance with the bat from the first match. However, the chances of this happening are bleak and we feel that India are better placed to win the final T20 match.
