Speaking after the win, Shreyas Iyer was happy with the team’s performance and said the bowling attack executed their plans very well in the first game at the Harare Sports Club, in Harare. He praised the bowling performance from Mayank Yadav as he gave India a good start with the new ball.
After being asked to bat first Mayank Yadav, who returned to the side after two years, had a dream start as he picked the wicket in the very first ball picking the wicket of Brian Bennett as he was dismissed for a golden duck. The hosts lost half the side for 64 runs as India’s inexperienced bowling attack dominated over the Zimbabwe batters.
