On Saturday, Shubman Gill-led India swatted aside Zimbabwe by ten wickets in the fourth T20I to gain an unassailable 3-1 lead in the ongoing five-match series. 

Batting first, Zimbabwe posted a respectable 152-run total before scintillating knocks from Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill powered the visitors to a thumping win. 

So, having sealed the series, India would be keen to sustain their winning streak and finish the tour with a clinical scoreline of 4-1. 

Meanwhile, the Chevrons would be desperate to play for their pride and conclude the series on a high note. 

So, as the stage gets set for a high-voltage contest, let's see how the pitch at Harare Sports Club will behave throughout the day. 


Harare Sports Club Pitch Report

The surface at Harare Sports Club is expected to be on the drier side. Considering a fresh pitch was dished out for the fourth T20I, we reckon the same surface will be used for the final dead rubber. 

So, as it will be a used pitch, expect the pacers to rely on cutters and slow balls. The spinners will also be in the game, making it tough for the batters to score, particularly in the second half. 

However, there will be decent batting conditions on offer, which the batters could exploit after getting set. If a used pitch is offered for the final game, expect the toss-winner to bat first.
