India vs Zimbabwe Live Streaming: How to Watch T20 World Cup Live in US and Canada - Preview, Date, Start Time, Channel, and More

Defending champions Team India faces a must-win scenario as the Super 8 stage of the ongoing T20 World Cup intensifies. Pressure mounted after the West Indies delivered a crushing 107-run victory over tournament surprise Zimbabwe in Mumbai on Monday. That emphatic result handed the Windies a strong early advantage in Group 1, just a day after India suffered a heavy 76-run loss to South Africa in Ahmedabad.

With that win, West Indies surged to the top of the group, boasting a massive net run rate of 5.35. One more victory from their remaining two matches would secure a semifinal spot - their first since 2016. South Africa are close behind with an NRR of 3.80 and also need just one win to advance to a second straight semifinal.

India, meanwhile, sit third with a deeply negative NRR of -3.80 following their heaviest World Cup defeat. They still have two games left - against Zimbabwe in Chennai on February 26 and West Indies in Kolkata on March 1 - but even two wins may not be enough.


If South Africa beat West Indies, India can qualify by winning both matches. But if the Windies prevail, India would need Zimbabwe to upset South Africa as well. With such a large NRR gap, India’s semifinal hopes are hanging in the balance and are no longer fully in their hands.
