The first match had been a walk in the park for India, this was a tougher contest, having to fight back after a top-order collapse and then after Zimbabwe's top three made a solid beginning. Between the 20th and 31st over though Zimbabwe lost five wickets and the contest was effectively over.

Unadkat was the pick of the Indian bowlers, showing off his slower ball and yorker on his way to a four-wicket haul. Mishra experimented with a quicker front-of-the-hand delivery, Jadeja was steady as ever and Mohammad Shami continues to impress. The one bowler they'd want to improve is Vinay Kumar, who was expensive early on.

Presentation ceremony:

Brendan Taylor: "Good side like them, if you give them chances they make you pay. That partnership really killed us. Our top-order batters and senior players have to put our hand up and accept responsibility. We were too slow in the field, and there are some penalties in place for that."

Virat Kohli: "At 50 for 4, it wasn't looking good. Few mistakes from the batsmen, few tricky calls. There's two sides of being lucky, you cna think that I'm not batting well, or you think today is my day, credit to Dhawan for the way he played. A pity Karthik couldn't make his century, Unadkat has good hieght, he hits good lengths, change of pace as well. We're playing some really good cricket, we've got a new side out there to prove themselves, today the guys responded beautifully."

Man of the Match is Shikhar Dhawan: "Actually, it was one of my lucky days. I was playing well in earlier innings too, but I was getting out. The wickets wasn't easy to bat on. Me and Karthik just thought we should play on the merit of the ball."

That's a wrap from this game, thanks everyone for joining us, and the many mails. See you on Sunday.

Jose, you should have sent your comment earlier. It has clearly fired Unadkat up. Hat-trick ball coming up. Two slips, gully and a short leg in place, a slight delay as the short leg man waits for his helmet

Five balls to go in this match

Jose: "A perennial problem of Indian cricket shows up yet again; "Death Bowling"! Please,will somebody tell Indian pacers that what they perceive to be 'death' bowling, often turns out to be 'suicide' bowling. When was the last time, India managed to chop off the opposition tail swiftly?"
