India hope to solve Marillier puzzle in second one-dayer

MOHALI, India, March 9 (AFP) - India go into the second one-dayer against Zimbabwe here on Sunday hoping to find an answer to Douglas Marillier's unconventional stroke-play.

Marillier masterminded Zimbabwe's one-wicket win with a quickfire 56 not out in the opening game at Faridabad on Thursday, surprising India with his superb improvisation.

The 23-year-old, the first batsman to score a half-century in international one-day cricket batting at No.10, stole victory from the hosts with his amazing ability to play unorthodox shots, especially the scoop over the wicket-keeper's head.

"We have watched videos of that innings and have things worked out," said India skipper Sourav Ganguly on the eve of the day-night encounter at the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium.
