    Jason Holder's reaction there showed that he felt done by the lack of pace on the slower ball. If he had gone through with the shot, I think it would've soared over the boundary as well.

    Zimbabwe are playing a dangerous game. They aren't bowling yorkers and these are nothing length deliveries to powerful men.

    The dot ball as valuable as the wicket for Zimbabwe.

    Jason Holder is not quite able to time a bash down the ground and Tony Munyonga manages to cling on to a catch with his fingertips diving forward at full stretch.

    Blessing Muzarabani is a brave man, but Jason Holder hammers his first two balls for six.

    The first is smacked back over the Zimbabwe seamer's head before Holder connects with a pull over mid-wicket for another maximum.

    Sherfane Rutherford with a piece of pure timing.

    The West Indies batter drills a flat-ish six off the final ball of Richard Ngarava's over for six.

    There's six balls left. Be a brave man to put your hand up to bowl this final over.

    Some of Zimbabwe's bowling plans haven't married up with their field settings today.

    In this format, it is very dangerous to start double-bluffing good strikers of the cricket ball. Sometimes you just have to take your medicine and decide what side of the field you want to protect.

    The ball will easily disappear into the crowd on these small boundaries in India. We all know that, so you have to keep it simple.

    Downtown from Romario Shepherd again off Richard Ngarava as he seeks his third six in a row but this time the left-arm seamer has his wicket.

    The ball comes down with snow on at long off but Ryan Burl, after waiting an age, safely pouches the catch.

    Romario Shepherd plants his foot down the pitch and deposits Richard Ngarava over his head and into the stands for six.

    Romario Shepherd is given a bit of width by left-arm seamer Richard Ngarava and he cuts it high over point for six.

    I'm just not sure the slower ball into the pitch is the way to go.

    We aren't seeing enough of those pitch-perfect yorkers. Brad Evans has seemed reluctant to go to it today, but it is still one of the hardest balls to hit.

    Romario Shepherd picks up the pace of the penultimate delivery of the over from Brad Evans and muscles it over long-on for six.

    I think it will be a big ask for West Indies to reach that 260 off 12 balls, Andy.

    Two singles and two dots from Brad Evans, who uses his variations well. Pace on and off. Short then full.

    Clever bowling.

    Could West Indies get close to Sri Lanka's record 260 from 2007 here?

    West Indies have passed 200-mark in that last over.

    There's only been one successful chase over 200 at the Wankhede Stadium in T20 internationals. That came when England chased down 230 against South Africa in 2016.

    Smart batting from Sherfane Rutherford.

    He does not overhit one pushed wider by Blessing Muzarabani and instead cuts him for four.

    When the 6ft 8in ZImbabwe quick straightens up Rutherford swivels on his heels and lifts a pull over deep backward square for six.

    Here's those two drops from Tashinga Musekiwa.

    Blessing Muzarabani's reintroduction has been seven or eight overs too late, in my opinion.

    Maybe Zimbabwe got a little too structured with their bowling changes. For example, the captain just bowled himself a little too long, especially when he started to take some punishment.

    You have to roll the dice in those situations. Maybe they should've tried Muzarabani for one over to give someone like Rovman Powell something to think about.

    Blessing Muzarabani strikes with his first ball to have Rovman Powell caught in the deep.

    It's short from Muzarabani and Tashinga Musekiwa - who has shelled two tonight - manages to cling on this time.

    "Blessing Muzarabani should have been in the attack before this..." Ian Bishop bellows on the TV commentary.

    That was a valiant effort from whoever was at extra cover there, but I can tell you know that at no stage did he want that in his hands either.

    It would've been another physio job because it was hit so hard, with fade as well.

    Further to Alex @ 14:56, we need a complete team with in-form batsmen and on-point bowlers to beat this West Indies team. I'm concerned that with our top order struggling, we cannot beat them or South Africa.

    A no-ball call off the final delivery of Sikander Raza's over.

    It was a single but when he rebowls it Sherfane Rutherford pumps it for four through the covers.
