Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan Match Prediction

The Afghan has been brilliant on this tour so far. Zimbabwe, on the other hand, have failed to win a single match and need to bring out their A-game to avoid a clean sweep by the visitors.

Afghanistan look like a well-balanced unit and should be gunning to continue their winning momentum in their next match as well.

Prediction: Afghanistan to win this encounter.
