Zimbabwe will hope to put up another spirited performance against the better-ranked Pakistan team, when they meet each other for the second T20 at Harare on Tuesday.
When the two sides met for the first game of the series on Sunday, the visitors did win the match, as expected, but not before the hosts gave them a massive scare. Pakistan, batting first, could manage a mere 136 runs from their 20 overs. In reply, Zimbabwe showed spark in patches and eventually ended-up on 123, losing the match by a close margin of 13 runs. Imad Wasim was the star for Pakistan, as his four wickets sealed the deal for his side.
The second match is expected to be a yet another thrilling affair. Zimbabwe have announced an unchanged squad for the game where as the Pakistanis have made two changes from their winning eleven; Mohammad Hafeez in for Mukhtar Ahmed and Mohammad Irfan in for Wahab Riaz. Pakistan have won the toss and elected to bat first.
