Ind vs Zim Head to Head Record: India and Zimbabwe have been involved in many thrilling games over the years, and most of the clashes have been won by the India National Cricket Team. Nevertheless, Zimbabwe performs to its level best and provides an Indian team to run for their win with some nail-biting matches. The cricketing rivalry between India and Zimbabwe is significantly one-sided, with the India National Cricket Team being the dominant force.
It’s a tale of fervent underdogs (Zimbabwe) grasping fleeting, glorious moments against a cricket giant. Remember Kapil Dev’s legendary innings of 175* in the 1983 World Cup, a desperate back-from-the-brink effort that resonates with Indian fans to this day. The face-off between both teams has always been entertaining because of the new talents rising and experienced players showing their class to make their nation win the match.
Ind vs Zim Head to Head Record in Tests
During the 90s and early 2000s, India and Zimbabwe played regularly and competed against each other in the longest format of the game. Zimbabwe had some remarkable, charismatic, and talented players who were outstanding during that period. The first test match played between the two teams in Harare ended in a draw when Dave Hogston played a memorable innings of 121 runs.
The clash of the two countries has been rare in recent years due to the decline in Zimbabwe’s fortunes in the cricketing world in the 2010s. There have been new cricketing nations that have risen quite a lot since then, and Zimbabwe has sort of fallen away, so when they get the chance to be on the up again, to regain the stature of being a strong team.
India and Zimbabwe have met eleven times in test cricket. Team India has won 7 matches, Zimbabwe has won 2, and 2 have ended in a draw.
