Top Picks for ZIM vs IND Dream11 Match:
Top Picks – Batters
KL Rahul:
The Indian skipper finally got a chance to bat in the last match since the conclusion of the Indian Premier League 2022. But the ace batter was bowled out on just one run after playing five balls. He is likely to open an inning in the last fixture as well to gain match fitness before the upcoming 2022 Asia Cup. He has scored 1635 runs in 44 ODI matches at an average of 45.41 and will be an excellent captaincy choice for this fixture.
Sean Williams:
The experienced middle-order batter scored the highest 42 runs off 42 balls in the last match and ended his poor run of form. He was crucial in Zimbabwe’s World Cup qualifiers but struggled for consistency against Bangladesh and in the first match against India. He has scored 4192 runs in 144 ODI matches at an average of 34.93 so far.
Top Picks – All-Rounders
Sikandar Raza:
The veteran Zimbabwe all-rounder failed to make a similar impact he did in the Bangladesh series but remains the best player for the hosts. He scored 12 and 16 runs in the first two matches and has taken only a wicket so far. But he outcompetes other all-rounder options Deepak Hooda and Sean Williams for this fixture.
Top Picks – Bowlers
Shardul Thakur:
The in-form bowling all-rounder was a surprise exclusion from the opening match despite taking the highest seven wickets in India’sprevious ODI series against West Indies. He proved his worth in the second match by taking three wickets while conceding just 38 runs in seven overs.
Deepak Chahar:
The left-arm pacer was dropped from the second match despite taking three wickets and winning the player of the match award in the first match. He has now taken nine wickets in his last four ODI matches and will be a good captaincy choice if India decide to bat first on Monday.
Top Picks – Wicketkeeper
Sanju Samson:
The in-form batter played a match-winning knock of 43 runs off just 39 balls with the help of three fours and four sixes and won the Player of the Match award in the second fixture. He didn’t get a chance to bat in the first match but remains an easy wicketkeeper pick over the likes of Ishan Kishan and Regis Chakabva.

Regis Chakabva, Sanju Samson, KL Rahul (c), Shubman Gill, Ryan Burl, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sikandar Raza (vc), Sean Williams, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Tanaka Chivanga.
ZIM vs IND Risky Captaincy Choices:
Regis Chakabva:
Zimbabwe’s skipper smashed a hundred in the last ODI match against Bangladesh and played a good knock of 35 runs in the first match against India. He promoted himself to the number four position in the last match but was bowled out on just two runs.
Rahul Tripathi:
As India have sealed the series, Rahul Tripathi is finally set to make his long-awaited debut. He is likely to play in the number three or four positions in the last match and is in good form in domestic cricket for the last few years. But his lack of experience on the international stage makes him a risky captaincy choice.
Player you should avoid:
Avesh Khan:
The right-arm pacer is struggling for consistency on the international level and was benched for the first two matches. He is likely to play the last match to stay sharp due to his inclusion in the upcoming 2022 Asia Cup. He has played only one ODI match so far where he failed to take any wickets and conceded 54 runs in just six overs.
