6 Min Read
Hosts Zimbabwe (ZIM) and the visitors Ireland (IRE) are set to have yet another clash in the third T20I of their three-match series, at the Harare Sports Club, in Harare. The Chevrons are looking forward to this series with courage, having secured a dominating 1-0 triumph over the Irish side.
Nevertheless, looking at their previous record and recent form, their T20I format has been contrary. The series opener brought no result due to the rain playing spoilsport. The second one was a closely-fought contest which was won by three deliveries with four wickets to spare.

Pitch Report
The Harare pitch seems to be more favourable for spin bowlers as the surface is slow and it is likely that the ball spin more. It'll be a little difficult for the batters to play but the batters who can play more effectively against spin and pace can score appropriate runs. However, as the match gets the breakthrough, the pitch might settle down which can make stroke play a little easier. The team winning the toss might chase first, leading the team likely to a positive outcome.Head-To-Head Record
