India vs Zimbabwe LIVE SCORE UPDATES T20 WC Super 8: IND 134/2 after 12 overs!

India added nine more runs in the 12th over, continuing to maintain a healthy scoring rate. Suryakumar Yadav rotated the strike early before finding fortune as a mistimed pick-up shot was spilled at fine leg, gifting him a boundary.

He followed it up with a neat tuck through mid-wicket for a couple, keeping the momentum intact. Abhishek Sharma, fresh from his half-century, played cautiously, collecting a single while being beaten once by a skiddy back-of-a-length delivery.

With Surya finishing the over with another single, India moved to 134-2, firmly in control of the innings.
