"India posted the second-highest score at a T20 World Cup, the West Indies having posted the third-highest score (254-6) three days earlier against the same opposition. That left the underdogs once again facing a record chase for a T20 World Cup. Once again, they fell comfortably short."
"Hardik struck an unbeaten 50 off 23 balls, while Varma hit four sixes in a 16-ball 44 as India posted the remarkable total of 256-4, with Sanju Samson (24) the only one of the six players who batted not to post a score of at least 30."
"Arshdeep Singh did the damage with the ball, taking 3-24, including the valuable scalp of Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza (31) as he became the highest India wicket-taker in the history of the men's T20 World Cup. He surpassed the great Jasprit Bumrah (33)."
India secured a dominant 74-run victory over Zimbabwe in the T20 World Cup Super 8s, posting 256-4, the second-highest score in tournament history. Abhishek Sharma scored 55, while Hardik Pandya hit an unbeaten 50 off 23 balls and Tilak Varma contributed 44 off 16 balls with four sixes. Zimbabwe's Brian Bennett scored an unbeaten 97 but couldn't overcome the required run rate of nearly 13 per over. Arshdeep Singh took 3-24 with the ball, becoming India's highest wicket-taker in T20 World Cup history, surpassing Jasprit Bumrah's previous record of 33 wickets. The victory sets up a winner-take-all clash with West Indies for India's semi-final qualification.
