Earlier, after winning the toss, <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/shreyas-iyer-hails-complete-team-effort-as-india-clinch-t20i-series-victory-against-zimbabwe-23641678" rel="nofollow">Shreyas Iyer</a> was happy to bat first. The Indian captain confirmed two changes in the starting 11, with Ashok Sharma and Suryansh coming into the team for the final match.
"We're going to bat first considering that we are playing on the same wicket and anticipating for it to get slower and slower. [Happy with the way this pitch played yesterday?] Certainly, we got 220 on the board and we got a phenomenal start the way boys played. It's just, you know, coming today in the morning and reflecting back on those performances give me thrills and obviously want to replicate the same performance again. [On the approach from Indian batters] It's going to be important for us to adapt as quickly as possible. We've got two changes. Prince is out, so Ashok Sharma comes in for him. And Shivam Dube is out, Suryansh comes in." Iyer said.
<a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/zimbabwe-captain-sikandar-raza-disappointed-with-pitch-conditions-after-loss-against-india-23641360" rel="nofollow">Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza</a> admitted that he would have batted first after winning the toss as well.
"Yeah, we're gonna have to do that anyway. But yeah, had we won the toss, we were looking to bat first as well. But it wasn't because of the slowness of the surface. We know scores have remained pretty good throughout, but we just wanted to bat first today. Richard Ngarava unfortunately has a slight niggle, so he misses out and Wellington Masakadza comes in." Raza said.
<h2>Confirmed Playing 11 of both teams:</h2>
Zimbabwe (Playing XI): Brian Bennett, Ben Curran, Dion Myers, Sikandar Raza(c), Ryan Burl, Wessly Madhevere, Tadiwanashe Marumani(w), Brad Evans, Newman Nyamhuri, Wellington Masakadza, Blessing Muzarabani
