- Pakistan’s T20I Series Against Zimbabwe.
- The team, led by Salman Ali Agha, features a youthful playing XI with key players.
- The bowling lineup includes Muhammad Abbas Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed, and Sufyan Moqim.
Pakistan kicked off their three-match T20I series against Zimbabwe with a toss win, opting to bat first in the opening game at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, on Sunday.
The Men in Green, led by Salman Ali Agha, have unveiled a youthful playing XI. Key players include Saim Ayub, Omair Bin Yousuf, Usman Khan, Tayyab Tahir, Muhammad Irfan Khan, and Jahandad Khan. The bowling lineup features Muhammad Abbas Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed, and Sufyan Moqim.
The visitors enter the series on the back of a morale-boosting victory, having defeated Zimbabwe by 99 runs in the third ODI on Thursday to secure a 2-1 series win.
Zimbabwe, however, boasts strong momentum, remaining unbeaten in their last five T20 matches during the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Sub Regional Africa Qualifier. Pakistan, in contrast, is recovering from a challenging phase, including a 3-0 T20I series loss to Australia and their first-ever group stage exit in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024.
The series promises a fierce contest as both sides aim to assert their dominance in the shortest format of the game.
Playing XI:
Salman Ali Agha (c), Saim Ayub, Omair bin Yousuf, Usman Khan, Tayyab Tahir, Muhammad Irfan Khan, Jahandad Khan, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed, and Sufiyan Moqim.
