Team India have already booked their semifinal berth in the T20 World Cup 2022 thanks to Netherlands stunning South Africa by 13 runs earlier in the day. A win over Zimbabwe in their final Super 12 match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Sunday (November 6) afternoon will ensure that the team tops Group 2 and faces England in the second semifinal at Adelaide on Thursday (November 10).

Rohit Sharma’s side have only lost 1 game – to South Africa – in the Super 12 although they had to battle hard to win against Bangladesh by five runs (DLS method) in their last match. Zimbabwe, on the other hand, are out of the race for a berth in the semifinal although they stunned Babar Azam’s Pakistan by 1 run earlier in the tournament.

Zimbabwe need to win this game against India at the MCG to keep their hopes of finishing fourth in the Group and ensure automatic qualification for next edition of the T20 World Cup in 2024. However, India will be the favourites going into this match but can’t take anything for granted after the shocks seen in this tournament by Ireland, Netherlands and Zimbabwe as well.

Big change by Rohit Sharma's Team India as Rishabh Pant replaces Dinesh Karthik in the playing XI. However, the reason that Rohit gave at the toss was he wanted Pant to get some game time in the middle. So basically DK has been rested.

IND vs ZIM T20 World Cup LIVE Score and Updates: Both team captains at the toss

Craig Ervine - We were looking to bowl first. The ball might skid through in the evening under lights. A couple of changes, Wellington and Munyonga are in, Milton has struggled a bit and we wanted to give Tony a chance. Luke Jongwe has an injury and we wanted the spin of Wellington Masakadza

Rohit Sharma - We will bat. It's the preference of the team to bat first, nothing to do with the pitch. We just want to bat first and give a chance to our bowlers to defend. One change, Rishabh Pant plays instead of DK, he is the only guy who hasn't played a single game on this tour including the warm-up games, we wanted to give him a game. Nothing changes, we need to do well as a team
