In the 3rd one Day International (ODI) match between Indian cricket team and Zimbabwe cricket team, it is the former who recorded the win by 14 runs to seal the series 3-0.
Batting first after winning the toss, Shubman Gill scored a brilliant century, scoring 130 runs. And with great assistant from Ishan Kishan, India posted 289 runs on the board.
While chasing the target, Zimbabwe came really close, all thanks to a brilliant century from Sikandar Raza. He carried the team’s chase but unfortunately fell short.
Raza has been in great form for the all last couple of weeks. He played brilliantly in their series against Bangladesh where he scored 2 Hundreds in 3 ODI match series.
And even though Team India won the match, Twitterati praised Raza and Zimbabwe for their fighting spirit.
Sikandar Raza, won all the hearts, What a year in his cricket career, absolute blockbuster at the age of 36. Take a bow, @SRazaB24. pic.twitter.com/qP40qzkMyq
