Zimbabwe have won the toss and opted to bowl first against the greens, Pakistan, who will be looking to secure their first win in the Super 12 of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022.

Babar Azam, captain of Pakistan, stated that he is satisfied with bowling first as the team wanted to utilise some “early swing”

Babar: Would’ve bowled first. There’s swing early, wanted to utilise that. Everyone is ready to go. Asif Ali not playing, Wasim is playing.

Ervine: We’ll bat. Wicket’s going to play the same throughout. Want to put on a decent score and put them under pressure. We’ll have to be (ready to face their pace attack?). Only had one day to get used to these conditions but everyone is feeling good. Chatara out for Evans.

Here are the playing XI of both the teams –

Pakistan (Playing XI): Mohammad Rizwan(w), Babar Azam(c), Shan Masood, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Haider Ali, Mohammad Nawaz, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Naseem Shah

Zimbabwe (Playing XI): Wesley Madhevere, Craig Ervine (c), Milton Shumba, Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Regis Chakabva (wk), Ryan Burl, Luke Jongwe, Brad Evans, Richard Ngarava, Blessing Muzarabani
