Defending champions, India, are looking to take control of their innings and chase the target of 288, against minnows, Zimbabwe, in their final group stage encounter of their Pool B, match 39 of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 at Eden Park in Auckland on Saturday. Currently, India are 84 for the loss of three wickets in 21 overs with Virat Kohli on 36 and Suresh Raina on four. Live Updates: India vs Zimbabwe
Earlier, India skipper, MS Dhoni, won the toss and elected to field first as Zimbabwe were bundled for 287. India bowled out an opposition for the sixth consecutive time in the tournament. India are fielding an unchanged squad from their previous game win against Ireland at Seddon park in Hamilton and so are Zimbabwe. The result of this match would be invariable as India have already qualified to the quarter-finals and would be facing Bangladesh on March 19 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), while Zimbabwe have been knocked out of the competition with just a single win from their five games so far. Live Scorecard: India vs Zimbabwe
India take on Zimbabwe in their final Group B match at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015. The game will take place at Eden Park, Auckland, before India make their way back to Australia for their quarter-final. On the other hand, Zimbabwe would go home after a campaign that saw them come close on a few occasions, but failed to record too many favourable results. ICC Cricket World Cup 2015: Complete Coverage
