IND vs ZIM 4th T20I highlights: A record-breaking 156-run opening partnership between openers Shubman Gill (58 runs off 39 balls) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (93 runs off 53 balls) propelled the 'youthful' Indian team to a dominant 10-wicket victory over Zimbabwe on Saturday (July 13) in IND vs ZIM 4th T20I in Harare.
This marks India's 2nd 10-wicket win in T20Is, replicating their achievement against Zimbabwe at the same venue (Harare), back in 2016. The unbeaten 156-run partnership between Yashasvi and Shubman, today, is the second-highest partnership for India in T20I run-chases (any wicket).
With this win, India secured an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match T20I series. The fifth and final T20I, a dead rubber, is scheduled to be played on Sunday, July 14.
