Zimbabwe has faced challenges in both their batting and bowling departments in this series. The batting lineup has struggled to post substantial totals, with their key players failing to deliver in the previous matches. The onus will be on Tadiwanashe Marumani and Sikandar Raza to anchor the innings and provide some stability.

Sikandar Raza, despite his low scores in the earlier games, is a seasoned campaigner and his experience is crucial for Zimbabwe’s chances of putting up a fight. He will need to step up, not only with the bat but also with the ball, to help the team restrict Pakistan’s powerful batting lineup.

On the bowling side, Blessing Muzarabani and Richard Ngarava will lead the attack. Both have shown glimpses of promise, but they will need to find breakthroughs to stop Pakistan’s batsmen from dominating the game.

Pakistan has been in superb form throughout the series, with both their batting and bowling clicking in tandem. Their openers Saim Ayub and Usman Khan have been leading the charge with strong performances, providing Pakistan with solid starts. Saim Ayub, in particular, has been exceptional, contributing vital runs in both matches so far.

In the middle order, Tayyab Tahir and Salman Agha have added depth and stability, while the pace department has been led by the ever-reliable Sufiyan Muqeem. Muqeem has been outstanding with the ball, claiming a remarkable 8 wickets in the first two games, and will be a key player to watch in the third T20I.

Pakistan’s bowling attack, spearheaded by Haris Rauf, has kept Zimbabwe’s batsmen under constant pressure. The bowlers have managed to maintain a tight grip on the game, not allowing Zimbabwe to settle in either of the first two matches.
