Having been stunned in the opening T20 of the series against Zimbabwe on Saturday, India will now go into the second match of the three series under pressure, needing a win to stay alive

Having thrashed Zimbabwe 3-0 in the one-day series, with comprehensive margins, India went into the T20 series all pumped up

Pakistan and Zimbabwe will clash in the first T20 of the series being held in the latter’s home territory at the Harare Sports Club. Without doubt, Pakistan would begin as favourites, but as Zimbabwe have proved in the recent past, they are no pushovers

Although Zimbabwe will not go into the second match of the one-day series against New Zealand as favourites in spite of having won the first match, they will be high on confidence following the adrenaline-pumping win.
