India trash Zimbawawe to clinch the ODI series

India trash Zimbabwe in the 3rd ODI by 7 wickets to win the series with 2 matches remaining to play in the series. In the 3rd ODI India won the toss and elected in the field. The decision proved right when the opening 2 wickets were lost in the first seven balls. After that Taylor and Maskadzada  sitched a good partnership of 62 lost too many wickets in the middle overs and were finally bowled for 183 in 46 overs. Amit Mishra was the pick of bowlers with 4 wickets. The Indian batting did not start well losing Rohit Sharma for 14 but the partnership of Dhawan and Kohli steadied the innings and at the end india won the match with 14.3 overs to spare. Kohli was the top scorer with 68 runs not out.

In the 2nd ODI zimbawawe won the toss and elected to field. They started well picking wickets of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Ambati Raydu and Suresh Raina. Dhawan rode his luck when he was caught of a no ball and then was dropped. He finally made 116 runs and Dinesh Karthik 68 helped the team to bail out of trouble and at the end Vinay Kumar scored some quick fire runs to post a score 294 for 7 in 50 overs. The Zimbawawe innings got off to a great start scoring 109 for 1 in 20 overs but after that they lost quick wickets to lose the match by 56 runs to hand the home team a big defeat. Undadkat was the pick of the bowlers with 4 wickets.

In the first ODI india won the toss and elected to field. The innings started very cautiously, the shot making was not easy. Sikander Raza made 82 runs and at the end Chigmbura made a quick fire 43 to to set a target of 229. India got off to poor start losing Dhawan and Sharma early. After that Kohli and Raydu put together a wonderful partnership. Kohli was the top scorer with 115. Raydu scored his first century in his debut match. India won the match by 6 wickets. Raina was out for zero.

In the remaining matches i think Rohit Sharma,Vinay Kumar, Amit Mishra, should be rested and Rahane, Rasool, Mohit should be given a chance. It should b 5-0 whitewash.
