Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill resembled unstoppable Ferraris on a national highway as they resoundingly struck unbeaten fifties to help India thrash Zimbabwe by 10 wickets and take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series. In the fourth T20I at the Harare Sports Club, India restricted Zimbabwe to 152/7 in 20 overs and then Jaiswal (93 not out) and Gill (58 not out) carried their bats through to hunt down 156 in just 15.2 overs and seal a massive win with 28 balls to spare.
Jaiswal began his onslaught by smashing Richard Ngarava for three delightful boundaries – via cut, whip and heave - in the opening over. From the other end, Shubman Gill got going with his trademark short-arm jab and cut to take two boundaries off Blessing Muzarabani.
Jaiswal gave signs of being unstoppable when he clobbered Tendai Chatara for four boundaries and brought up India’s fifty in just 3.5 overs by steering Faraz Akram to the left of the diving short third-man for four.
