Zimbabwe win toss, bowl against India

HARARE: Captain Elton Chigumbura won the toss and elected to bowl first in the second one-day international against India as Zimbabwe attempted to keep the three-match series alive on Sunday.

Zimbabwe fell just short of victory in the first match on Friday, when Chigumbura hit an unbeaten century but could not get his side over the line in a four-run defeat.

The hosts made one enforced change to their line-up, with fast bowler Tinashe Panyangara replaced by Neville Madziva after sustaining a side strain in the first game.

India, who have rested seven senior players for the tour, named the same side that won Friday´s series opener.

Teams:
Zimbabwe: Vusi Sibanda, Chamu Chibhabha, Hamilton Masakadza, Elton Chigumbura (captain), Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza Butt, Richmond Mutumbami, Graeme Cremer, Brian Vitori, Neville Madziva, Donald Tiripano.

India: Ajinkya Rahane (captain), Murali Vijay, Ambati Rayudu, Manoj Tiwary, Robin Uthappa, Kedar Jadhav, Stuart Binny, Axar Patel, Harbhajan Singh, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Dhawal Kulkarni.
