Zimbabwe looked like they were headed for a miracle win but Suresh Raina and M S Dhoni pulled India through for their 10th consecutive win in the World Cup.

Set a competitive 278 win by Zimbabwe, India rode on a magnificent unbeaten 110 from Suresh Raina and an unbeaten 85 from skipper M S Dhoni to enusre they beat the African nation by six wickets.

Brendon Taylor played a captain's knock for Zimbabwe with a magnificent 138 off 110 balls. Sean Williams gave him company with a 57-ball 50, which gave Zimbabwe a fighting total.
