Preview
In the 48th match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, India (IND) are set to face Zimbabwe (ZIM) on Thursday at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. India’s first Super 8 encounter was a brutal reality check, as they suffered a 76-run thrashing against South Africa. The crushing loss caused their NRR to drop to -3.800, so they must win both upcoming fixtures to reach the semi-finals.
Similarly, Zimbabwe lost their previous match by 107 runs against the West Indies. West Indies batted first and posted a big total of 254 runs. In response, Zimbabwe failed to chase down the target and were bowled out for 147 runs. India are the favourite to win this contest to get their Super 8 campaign back on track
