India has taken a 1-0 lead in the series and will now aim to clinch the series by winning the second T20I.
On the other hand, the Zimbabwe cricket team will look to make a comeback in the series, as this match is a ‘do-or-die’ encounter for them to stay alive in the three-match series.

Harare Sports Club, Pitch Report: Conditions for the second T20I are expected to remain similar to those of the first. The Harare pitch is generally balanced, offering seamers assistance with swing and bounce early on.
Once settled, batters can score runs easily, as the consistent bounce facilitates stroke-play. As the pitch slows down, spinners play a crucial role during the middle overs. A score of 160–170 is considered a good total here.
