Pitch Report
A competitive track beckons at the Harare Sports Club with there being enough help on offer for the bowlers. There should be enough swing available early on to keep the pacers interested. As the match progresses, the spinners will come into play given the nature of the track. Both teams will look to keep wickets in hand and look to go all out in the backend of the innings. The two teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with the pitch expected to slow down.
Today's ZIM vs AFG Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Regis Chakabva: Regis Chakabva, who was demoted to a middle-order role, had a decent outing in the previous game, but couldn't convert his start. He has good technique against both pace and spin and can clear the boundary at times of need. With the Zimbabwean keeper looking in good form, he is one to watch out for in the game.
Batter
Hazratullah Zazai: Hazratullah Zazai put in a good performance at the top of the order in the first game, scoring a 26-ball 45. The southpaw went on the attack from ball one, which is a trait of his batting. With the conditions also suiting his style of batting, Hazratullah is a good addition to your ZIM vs AFG Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Sikandar Raza: Sikandar Raza was the star of the show in the previous game, scoring 45 runs and conceding just 16 runs in his four overs. He has been their go-to player in both this series and the ODI series with his experience serving him well. With Raza likely to play a big role in this game, he is a must-have in your ZIM vs AFG Dream11 fantasy team.
Bowler
Rashid Khan: Rashid Khan is perhaps the best bowler in T20 cricket with his record speaking for itself. The leg-spinner has been in fine form, returning with figures of 1/21 in the previous game as well. With Rashid adding value with the bat as well, he can be backed to excel against Zimbabwe in this game.
