– Pakistan won the 1st game of the T20 series and will look to wind up the series by winning the 2nd T20. Team rested some of the players last game and could be the same this game as well.

 

– Captain Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan will open the Innings. Both are forming one of the best opening pairs in T20 cricket recently. Both averaged 50+ against SA last series with Babar going on the score his maiden T20I to. Babar was out cheaply but Rizwan went on to score 82 and remained not out.

 

– Fakhar Zaman will bat at 1 down. Fakhar has moved down to 1 down position from last series and it has worked for the team. He scored 94 runs in 3 games where he got some chance of Batting in last Series.

 

– Mohammad Hafeez will bat next. Hafeez is nothing short of any experience in world cricket, also has a very good SR recently.

 

– Haider Ali will bat in middle followed by M Nawaz and Faheem Ashraf. 

 

– Usman Qadir and Mohammad Nawaz will be the spin option for Pakistan. Mohammad Hafeez and Danish Aziz can assist them.

 

– Haris Rauf, M Hasnain and Faheem Ashraf will be the pace attack of Pakistan.

 

– Zimbabwe looked extremely good in their bowling department last game where they restricted a strong Pakistani team for just 149 but were unable to chase it.

 

– Brendon Taylor and T Kamunhukamwe will open for Zimbabwe. Kamunhukamwe is a attacking batsman but can’t say against Pakistan pace attack. Taylor is back and ready to contibute his domestic form after being out in the 1st t20 due to ilness.

 

– Wesley Madhevere will bat at 1 down. Madhevere is a talented Allrounder who is good with the ball and attacks from the word go with the bat.

 

– Sean Williams and T Marumani will bat in middle. Williams didn’t made much contibution in the 1st T20 neither with bat nor with bowl but is an important part of the team. 

 

– Regis Chakabva will bat next followed by Ryan Burl and Luke Jongwe. All 3 can play some attacking Cricket especially Chakabva who recently played a match winning knock of 59 of just 29 balls against the Rhinos.

 

– W Masakadza, Ryan Burl, Wesley Madhevere and Sean Williams will be handling the spin section.

 

– Blessing Muzarabani, Luke Jongwe and Ngarava will be the pace bowling attack of Zimbabwe.
