Zimbabwe vs India 2013: First ODI - Player ratings for Zimbabwe

Matthew Waller: 1/10

M. N. Waller’s innings lasted just 7 balls, before he was bowled playing inside the line of a good length ball from Mohammad Shami Ahmed.

Elton Chigumbura: 8/10

Chigumbura provided the finishing touch to the Zimbabwean innings, as the middle order around him were starting to crumble. His unbeaten 43 came off just 34 balls, which included six boundaries and a six over deep mid-wicket. He also took the crucial wicket of Rohit Sharma.

Tinotenda Mutombodzi: 2/10

The leg breaks of the young T Mutombodzi were handled with ease by both Kohli and Rayadu, as he was belted for 65 runs in 7.5 overs. He never looked like taking a wicket and his inexperience was evident.

Prosper Utseya: 7/10

Although he couldn’t do much with the bat, he did bowl a decent spell of off-spin. He went for just 34 in 10 overs. He also took two wickets; however, the match was almost done and dusted by then.

Tendai Chatara: 6/10

Chatara, playing just his fifth ODI, bowled a very impressive first spell, not giving the Indians many scoring opportunities. He did not get any purchase off the wicket though, thus being denied any wickets.

Kyle Jarvis: 7/10

Jarvis, one of Zimbabwe’s brightest talents, impressed with his raw pace and aggressive bowling. He dismissed Dhawan with a good bouncer, which climbed on the batsman. He ended with figures of 40 for 1 in 8 overs.
