ZIM vs IND 4th T20I highlights: India beat ZIM by 10 wickets, lead series 3-1

Back to their collective best a clutch of young Indian stars will be eager to usher in a new era in the shortest format with a series victory when they face Zimbabwe in the fourth T20I on SaturdayAfter an unexpected defeat in the first match the Shubman Gillled side rediscovered its mojo in the second and third games to take a 21 lead with comprehensive winsUnder the existing cricketing landscape a series win over Zimbabwe will not rank high in the pecking order but it will certainly spark ambitions inside some young players who are keen to take the team forward post the retirement of some modernday greatsNone provide more compelling cases of that scenario than Washington Sundar and Abhishek SharmaPost the retirement of Ravindra Jadeja from T20Is Washington is eyeing the spinallrounder slot and the Tamil Nadu man has shown some promising signs against Zimbabwe taking six wickets at a fine economy of 45Whenever the selectors sit together to pick the Indian squad for the upcoming whiteball tour to Sri Lanka they now will have to consider Washingtons name seriouslyAlso ReadIf not a cricketer Irsquod be a chef Smriti MandhanaThe 24yearold has given this Indian side the option of a bowler flexible enough to operate inside and outside the Power Play and a handy lowerorder batter who if the need arises has the technique to come up the order as wellAbhishek bludgeoned a 47ball hundred in the second T20I here underscoring the hope around him as a longterm India materialIndia will no longer have the services of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in the ultraabridged version and Yashasvi Jaiswal is the frontrunner to occupy one of those toporder slotsAbhishek will hope to further buttress his claim for the other vacant toporder spot for which there are other strong contenders in Shubman Gill and Ruturaj Gaikwad with a bruising knock against the African side here on the morrowBut this is not to say that some of the more established names such as Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube have nothing to gain from this seriesThey linked with the squad here after taking part in Indias victory parade in Mumbai post the T20 World Cup triumph where they had limited or little role in that epochal runSo the remaining two matches of this series will be an opportunity for Dube and Samson to keep themselves in the front row of players who will carry India into the future producing some valuable effortsIndian management will also be pleased by the outing of their bowlers particularly that of legspinner Ravi Bishnoi whose googlies were indecipherable for the home battersBishnoi has six wickets numbers similar to Washington and pacer Avesh Khan who proved a nippy customer in this seriesMukesh Kumar might come in place for leftarm pacer Avesh Khan after getting a rest in the previous match but the pacer though he has taken four wickets will certainly like to be more economicalOn other hand Zimbabwe have slipped a few rungs below after beating India in the first matchThere have been lonely sparks in their lineup like searing spells by impressive pacer Blessing Muzarabani and a wellpaced fifty by Dion MyersBut they need to harness them to meaningfully challenge this Indian unit which is currently operating at one level higherZIM vs IND 4th T20I live updates Full squadsIndia Shubman Gill c Yashasvi Jaiswal Ruturaj Gaikwad Abhishek
