BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB
Vinay Kumar302438.0081200
0.4 to H Masakadza, very tame dismissal, Vinay hits the deck hard and directs it towards the body, Masakadza isn't quick enough to fend it off and instead the ball lobs towards Raina at extra cover. 2/1
2.6 to BRM Taylor, Vinay has his revenge after being caned! Fullish in length on middle and leg, Taylor moves right across his stumps to flick it away, no bat involved, plumb as ever. 30/2
19.3 to P Utseya, yorker again! Vinay Kumar was dead accurate with this yorker and Utseya made himself some room but couldn't dig it out, the ball hits middle and off. 107/9
Ashok Dinda302729.00105002
18.3 to CR Ervine, timber! Ervine stays rooted to the crease and doesn't make up his mind on the shot, the ball skids through and knocks the off stump back a few yards. 103/7
18.6 to RW Price, off stump goes for a spin again! Dinda swings it in and fires it on the blockhole, Price fails to dig it out, the off stump lands a couple of yards back. 105/8
Pragyan Ojha401122.75140010
13.1 to E Chigumbura, Zimbabwe are losing the plot here, Chigumbura gets on his knee to sweep on seeing the fine leg up, but he gets a top edge and Vijay gets under it at long leg. 80/5
13.3 to GA Lamb, two for the over! Ojha tosses it up on middle and leg, Lamb tries to work it across the line and the ball clips the base of the pad in line with the stumps, straightforward decision. 81/6
Ravichandran Ashwin402215.5092000
5.3 to T Taibu, tossed up on middle and off, he tries to clear the infield on the on side but the ball dips towards Rohit who jogs back at mid-on, comfortably taken. 46/3
Piyush Chawla401413.50110000
10.2 to CJ Chibhabha, the googly traps him, Chibhabha gives himself a bit of room but the ball skids through and spins the other way, hits him in front of leg and umpire Tiffen is convinced. 73/4

BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB
Chris Mpofu403127.75133130
0.6 to M Vijay, Vijay fails yet again, Mpofu bowls a slower ball on the pads and Vijay tries to flick it away by using his wrists, picks out Utseya at short square leg, easy catch. 7/1
2.5 to NV Ojha, when in doubt, go for the short ball! No secret against India, Mpofu drops it short down the leg side and Ojha moves across his stumps and withdraws the shot, the ball appears to brush his glove, Taibu and the bowler know he's gone. 12/2

Prosper Utseya201206.0060100
Ray Price402426.00103000
7.2 to SK Raina, he perishes going for the big hit, he comes down the track and tries to launch him over the on side, Chigumbura leaps up and takes the catch over his head. 47/3
7.4 to RG Sharma, Game on here! Well done Taibu! Rohit gets forward to defend but the ball brushes his thigh and rolls towards Taibu, Rohit 's back foot was out of the crease and the alert Taibu whips off the bails. 48/4
