India could also recall left-arm pacer Ashok Sharma, who missed the second T20I after featuring in the series opener. With Prince's availability in doubt, Ashok appears the most straightforward replacement if the team opts for a like-for-like change.

ZIMBABWE WHITEWASH ON CARDS

Although India have dominated the series, there is still a notable milestone up for grabs. The visitors have not whitewashed Zimbabwe in a bilateral T20I series since their 2-0 triumph during the 2010 tour. Completing a 3-0 sweep would underline the gulf between the two sides and cap an impressive turnaround after the disappointments in the UK.

The batting unit has looked increasingly settled as the series has progressed. Ishan Kishan's fluent return to form, Tilak Varma's consistency in the middle order and the fearless approach of teenage sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi have provided India with plenty of positives. While Abhishek Sharma has struggled for runs, his three-wicket spell in the second T20I demonstrated the value he brings to the team.

HARARE PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

The pitch in Harare has been excellent for batting throughout the series. While Zimbabwe's batters have struggled to make the most of the conditions, India have shown in both matches that there are plenty of runs on offer for those who settle in. Another high-scoring contest could be on the cards on Sunday, with the bowlers expected to face another stern test.

The weather is also set to cooperate, with no rain forecast in Harare on Sunday. Clear skies and pleasant temperatures of around 21-22 degrees Celsius should ensure ideal conditions for cricket.

Having already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead, India have dominated proceedings with a fearless brand of cricket, excelling in both batting and bowling.

The second T20I showcased India's depth as Ishan Kishan struck a scintillating 81 off 44 balls, while Tilak Varma remained unbeaten on 60 from just 29 deliveries to power the visitors to an imposing 219/5.

The bowlers then backed up the batting effort with a clinical display to bundle Zimbabwe out well short of the target, completing a comprehensive 90-run triumph.

Will be very happy if India can finish with a whitewash!

: Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma lead India's batting revival

India's batting has found its rhythm during the Zimbabwe T20I series, with Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma leading the charge. Kishan's aggressive approach at the top has given India rapid starts, while Tilak has anchored the middle order with composed yet attacking innings.

Teenage opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has continued to impress, adding another dimension to India's batting lineup. Although Abhishek Sharma has struggled for runs, his impact with the ball has strengthened the team's balance as India look to finish the series unbeaten.
