Pakistan Takes the Bat First in Crucial Final ODI Against Zimbabwe
Pakistan opted to bat first in the third and final ODI against Zimbabwe at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, following their victory in the second match which levelled the series at 1-1. Captain Mohammad Rizwan announced an unchanged squad for the decider, while Zimbabwe made two changes, bringing in wicketkeeper Clive Madande and all-rounder Faraz Akram to strengthen their lineup.
Pakistan posted a total of 303 runs for the loss of six wickets in their allotted 50 overs, with Kamran Ghulam shining brightly by scoring his maiden ODI century, registering 103 runs off 99 balls. Contributions from opener Abdullah Shafique, who made 50 runs, and Tayyab Tahir, who added an unbeaten 29 in the death overs, helped solidify a competitive target for Zimbabwe.
In response, Zimbabwe started their innings but struggled early on, finding themselves at 101 runs for 4 wickets after 20 overs. Craig Ervine offered resistance with an unbeaten 39 runs, while the left-hand right-hand combination faced a challenging run chase.
Pakistan’s bowlers, epitomised by the performance of Saim Ayub and Abrar Ahmed, made early inroads, taking key wickets and stifling Zimbabwe’s scoring opportunities. The Zimbabwean batsmen need to regroup and accelerate if they are to stand a chance of winning their first-ever ODI series against Pakistan.
As the match progresses, all eyes are on the Zimbabwean batting line-up to see if they can meet the daunting target and clinch a historic series victory.
