This happened for the first time with Team India this year

The Indian team has seen such a day for the first time this year. Team India has to face defeat in a T20 match for the first time in the year 2024. Earlier, the Indian team had won every match played in every series and all the matches during the World Cup, but in the end a small team like Zimbabwe defeated India. Shubman Gill also had a chance to make a record in this match. Actually, Team India had won 12 consecutive matches before this match. If he had won his 13th match as well, it would have become a world record. The record is that India would have won the most consecutive matches in T20 International. Apart from this, after MS Dhoni, Gill has become the second captain to lose a T20 match to Zimbabwe.

How was the match

In this match played between the two teams, Team India captain Shubman Gill won the toss and decided to bowl first. After this, Zimbabwe batted in the first innings and scored 115 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs. During this, the performance of the Indian bowlers was amazing. In the second innings of the match, Team India had a target of only 116 runs to win. Which the Indian team must have entered the field with the intention of achieving very easily. But the Indian team could not achieve this target and they were all out for 102 runs in 19.5 overs. With this, Zimbabwe won the match by 13 runs.
