The first T20I of the five-match series between the two teams was played yesterday at Harare Sports Club where India faced defeat. After losing the first match by 13 runs, an unwanted record was registered in the name of Indian captain Shubman Gill. With this defeat, he has joined the shameful club of MS Dhoni. Actually, India’s T20I record against Zimbabwe has been quite impressive. So far, 9 matches have been played between the two teams, in which India has won 6, while they have faced defeat 3 times. In the three matches in which India has lost, the team has had different captains. Shubman Gill is the third Indian captain to lose to Zimbabwe in this format. Before Shubman Gill, India has lost to Zimbabwe under the captaincy of these two captains Let us tell you that India faced its first defeat in T20I cricket against Zimbabwe in 2015 under the captaincy of Ajinkya Rahane. In that match, the team had to face defeat by a margin of 10 runs. In that match, Zimbabwe batted first and scored 145 runs, in response to which India was able to score only 135 runs at the loss of 10 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs. After this, the team had to face the second defeat against Zimbabwe in 2016 under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. India lost that match by just 2 runs. In that match too, Zimbabwe batted first and put 170 runs on the board. In reply, despite Manish Pandey’s innings of 48 runs, India could only score 168 runs at the loss of 6 wickets in 20 overs.

The semi-finals of the T20 World Cup will be played on June 27, while the final match will be played on June 29. The group stage of T20 World Cup 2024 was mired in controversies due to slow pitch The group stage of the T20 World Cup has been very controversial. This T20 World Cup will be remembered a lot because of the pitch. None of the pitches were in favor of the batsmen and neither were there any high scoring matches in the tournament. However, there were some players who hit a rain of sixes with their bats despite the slow pitch. But the sad thing is that no batsman from Team India is in the list of players who have hit the most sixes in this tournament so far. In this article, we are going to talk about those players who have hit the most sixes in the tournament before the start of the group stage i.e. Super 8 matches of the ongoing T20 World Cup. West Indies’ dashing batsman Nicholas Pooran is at the top of this list. He has hit the most 13 sixes in the tournament so far. At the same time, America’s Aaron Jones has also hit 13 sixes but he has taken more time to achieve this feat. Let’s see the complete list- Most sixes in T20 World Cup 2024 (before Super 8) Team Player Total sixes (six) West Indies Nicholas Pooran 13 USA Aaron Jones 13 Australia Marcus Stoinis 10 Afghanistan Rahmanullah Gurbaz (Rahmanullah Gurbaz, 10 Australia Travis Head 9 Scotland George Munsey 9
Before Super 8, know the list of India’s 3 highest T20I wicket-takers on West Indies pitches
Ashish Nehra has taken 10 wickets in 5 T20 matches on West Indies pitches at an average of 15.60 and an economy rate of 7.80. Hardik Pandya (Photo Source: BCCI) Before coming to the T20 World Cup 2024, Indian bowlers would not have even imagined taking 25 wickets in just three matches. But the group stage in the United States was something like this. Even the bowlers who had the most question marks on them got success. Now, the tournament is going to be extremely competitive. The flatter conditions in West Indies for the Super-8 will probably test Mohammad Siraj and the rest of the Indian players. Arshdeep Singh could not perform well on similar pitches. At the same time, looking at the pitch, there may be a question mark on who should be selected, Kuldeep Yadav or Ravindra Jadeja. However, it is not that Indian bowlers have not been successful on this pitch. In this article, we will name 3 bowlers who have taken the most wickets for India in T20 format in West Indies. 2 of these are in the current squad of Team India. 3. Hardik Pandya Hardik Pandya comes third in this list. He has taken 6 wickets at an average of 22.16 and an economy rate of 6.33 during the 2022 and 2023 tours. His best bowling spell has been 3/35. 2. Arshdeep Singh Arshdeep Singh’s return to form against the US team in the group stage matches is a very positive sign for Team India. Like Hardik Pandya, Arshdeep Singh’s slower and swinging ball helps him a lot on Caribbean pitches. He is the second highest wicket taker from India in this list. He has taken 7 wickets in 6 matches at an average of 25.85. His best spell on these West Indies pitches is 2/24. 1. Ashish Nehra Ashish Nehra has taken 10 wickets in 5 T20 matches on West Indies pitches at an average of 15.60 and an economy rate of 7.80. The interesting thing is that he played 5 matches during the 2010 T20 World Cup and was the best bowler in that edition. Ashish Nehra has taken 3 wicket hauls twice in the tournament.

Taking wickets is undoubtedly important, but another aspect of bowling that sets bowlers apart is their ability to bowl maiden overs. A maiden over is one in which no runs are given, and it can have a profound impact on the game. A maiden over can put pressure on the batting side and set the tone for the bowler’s spell.
