Crucial India-Zimbabwe match on May 19
18th May 1999     
By Ravish Mishra & Ajay Chaturvedi

All eyes are on the May 19 India-Zimbabwe World Cup Cricket league match to be played at Leicester.

The Indians go into this match having lost their opening encounter to the South Africans. And, Zimbabwe goes to Leicester with its tail up, having defeated Kenya in the opening encounter.

This will be the chance for Sachin Tendulkar to open his shoulders and get into his rhythm, especially since he has a very good recent batting record against this side. Tendulkar has scored his 20th and 21st one day centuries against Zimbabwe and will be looking to score the 22nd.

But the Zimbabwe side is not to be taken for granted, and can stage an upset. It is an excellent fielding side full of all-rounders.

India will be looking to win and bag two points. It must win its remaining four league matches to make its entry into the super six a certainty. If it wins only three matches, it will have to rely upon a better nett run rate. For that too, the Zimbabwe match would offer a good opportunity.

Zimbabwe will also be eager to register a win, having two points already in its pocket.

India will have to be careful about its wayward bowling, which let it down against the South Africans.

IndiaExpress.com shall bring live coverage of this crucial match.
