PAK vs ZIM Weather Report And Pitch Report Of the Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo – 2nd ODI, Pakistan tour of Zimbabwe 2024

Fresh off their stunning 80-run victory in the rain-affected first ODI, Zimbabwe look to clinch the series against Pakistan in Tuesday’s second PAK vs ZIM match 2024 at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo.

The hosts dominated the series opener thanks to a crucial 62-run partnership between Sikandar Raza and Richard Ngarava, who lifted Zimbabwe to a competitive 205.

Blessing Muzarabani then spearheaded the bowling attack before spinners Sean Williams and Raza dismantled Pakistan’s batting lineup.

For Pakistan, who have now two of their last four ODIs, the pressure mounts. Their batting remains a concern, having failed to chase modest targets consistently.

The visitors will likely seek changes to their playing XI, with experienced Mohammad Rizwan stabilizing the middle order.
