While India’s
playing eleven was unchanged, Zimbabwe made five changes to the eleven that
last played the Indians (at the 1983 World Cup) – Robin Brown, Jack Heron,
Duncan Fletcher, Gerald Peckover and Peter Rawson made way for a couple of
One-day International debutant, Kevin Arnott and Babu Meman, Andy Waller, Ali
Shah and Malcolm Jarvis.
John Traicos, Zimbabwe’s skipper, won the toss and chose to bat. Arnott, who faced six balls, scored a run. Manoj trapped him leg before wicket, breaking the three-run P(rabhak)artnership. Houghton, who faced a dozen deliveries, D(av)id not open his account. Prabhakar broke the nine-run stand.
Grant Paterson faced 21 balls, scoring six. Prabhakar broke the third-wicket stand, which was worth just one. The fourth-wicket pair did not open its account. Kevin Curran, who faced a ball, was dismissed for a blob by Prabhakar.
