ZIM vs PAK 2nd T20I Preview
In the first match of the tournament, Pakistan batted first after winning the toss. Even though they steadily started the innings, they lost their way in the middle phase of the innings. The Zimbabwe bowlers did a great job in the middle overs. Led by Sikandar Raza, the home team not only put a brake on the scoring rate but also chipped away with wickets. It took cameos from Tayyab Tahir and Irfan Khan Niazi in the lower order to take the total of 165/4 in their 20 overs.
In the chase, Zimbabwe started brilliantly. Tadiwanashe Marumani played a few shots at the top and got them going brilliantly. The skipper of the team, Sikandar Raza aided Marumani after the loss of first two wickets and it looked like the home team will cruise to win. However, as the wicket of Marumani fell, Zimbabwe started losing the plot. They suffered a major collapse and lost eight wickets for just 31 runs. Ultimately, they were bundled out for 108 and lost the game by 57 runs.
While Pakistan will be looking to win this game and seal the series, Zimbabwe will be keen on winning the game and keep the series alive for the decider.

Weather - The weather during the day will be hot with plenty of sunshine. The temperature will be around 35° C with nearly no chance of rain.
Pitch Report - In the first match, we saw that the track was bit slow. While the batters were finding it hard to play their shots, the spinners were also playing a big role on the track. So, we can expect that the new ball will be good for batting and as the match progresses it will slow down and the track will bring the spinners into the game.
