PAK vs ZIM Prediction, Dream11 Fantasy Cricket Tips: Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update – T20I Series, Match 3

Match Details:

The 3^rd match of the T20I series between Pakistan and Zimbabwe will be played at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi.

The match is scheduled to start at 03:30 PM Local Time (04:00 PM IST).

Preview:

As expected, Pakistan have taken an unassailable lead in this three-match T20I series. Having accomplished their primary goal of winning the series, they will now look to make a clean sweep in the third game, and at the same time, give some new players a chance to showcase their talent.

On the other hand, Zimbabwe’s top-order continues to struggle against the new ball as they faltered again, without making any significant impact in the match. They might want to change their opening combination and give the talented Tinashe Kamunhukamwe a chance in the playing XI for the first time on this tour.
