Meanwhile, with the help of an unbeaten knock from Sanju Samson, India defeated Zimbabwe by five wickets.

“How much ever time you spend in the middle, it makes you feel good. Even more special to do it for the country. I did take three catches, but I missed a stumping. Really enjoying keeping and batting. I think they (Indian bowlers) were bowling really good areas, a lot of balls came nicely to me,” Samson said after the match.
