3rd T20I: Gave Away 20 Runs Extra Via Fielding, Says Zimbabwe Skipper Sikandar Raza After 23-run Loss
Harare Sports Club: After losing to India by 23 runs in the third T20I at the Harare Sports Club, Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza had no qualms in admitting that the sloppy fielding efforts resulted in them giving away 20 runs extra and that they still have problems in the top of their batting line-up.
Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill had a 67-run opening stand before Zimbabwe enforced a slowdown in the middle overs. Gill (66) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (49) joined forces for a 72-run partnership off 44 balls for the third wicket, which ensured India got to 182/4 in 20 overs.
They were also helped by Zimbabwe’s fielding being absolutely sloppy. There were lots of misfield and dropped catches -– one each shelled off Jaiswal and Gaikwad. A few half-chances were squandered, while the fielders were late on the majority of occasions in reaching the ball.
