Match ended Draw

Covers are off. Play is set to start at 14:00 local time!The toss will take place at 13:30. A minimum of 55 overs will be played, and the cut-off time is 18:00.( 9.30 pm IST)

Zimbabwe have won the toss and have opted to field

Craig Ervine: We are gonna have a bowl. Overhead conditions are still good, wicket has been under covers for a long time, hopefully we can utilise the conditions. Our first innings was really good, pressure goes up as the game goes on. Batting-wise we were good, bowling-wise a few more strategies but I thought we did really well in the first Test. Little bit more moisture and a little bit more green cover on this. Two changes for us - Mavuta and Gwandu are out, Raza and Ngarava are in.✍️🎉🦾
