that's it, taken at mid-off, and India finish it off. It was pitched up slightly, Donald chipped it down in the air and Axar had to dive forward to get his hands under it. Good catch seals the series win

Time for the presentation:
Chigumbura: Losing three wickets in first 11 overs made us lose today, something we need to work on from next game. Was a much better wicket today and a chaseable score, we thought they'd score 300 but we managed to pull it back. Unfortunately didn't back it with the bat.
Rahane: We were looking for 280-290 but we batted pretty well and partnership between me and Vijay was crucial and later with Rayudu. Wicket was slow early but got even slower in second innings and we have a good experienced attack with quality spinners. It wasn't easy for batting but we bowled well. Our bowlers were upto the mark, they bowled in right areas and fielding was right up there.
Man of the Match Vijay: It was a great opportunity for me to prove myself, I wasn't getting my flow right but still helped in the opening partnership. The wicket was much better today, a bit on the slower side but we adjusted to it.
That's all from the second ODI, and from the series for today. Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did, bringing the coverage to you. Keep an eye on Bangladesh's chase or the Wimbledon final if you don't know what else to do on a Sunday. Until the next match, goodbye and good luck!
4.49pm A much better all-round performance from India today, so much stronger with the bat, excellent on the field, and better bowling to lead 2-0. Zimbabwe didn't bowl badly after opting to field, but the Indian batsmen were tough to dismiss today. Zimbabwe dropped a couple of catches too and were eventually beaten by 62 runs, India take the series.
Federer takes the second set, what a thrilling tie-breaker!
