ZIM vs PAK Dream11 Prediction: 2nd T20I
ZIM vs PAK 2nd T20I Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing XI, and Fantasy Cricket Tips. Zimbabwe and Pakistan will play against each other in the 2nd T20I at Harare Sports Club, Harare.
Zimbabwe:
Zimbabwe had to face disappointment in the first match of the series as they lost the close encounter by just 11 runs. The bowlers did an excellent job, and if the batsmen had batted somewhat better, they could have won the match comfortably.
Kamunhukamwe and Madhevere opened the innings for the team, but Madhevere got out early, and Marumani at No.3 also got out on the very next ball. Craig Ervine batted well, stabilizing the innings, and also scored runs quickly.
In the middle-order, Ryan Burl, skipper Sean Williams, and Chakabva, who was supposed to take the team over the finishing line, got out in quick sessions. In the end, Luke Jongwe batted well but couldn’t finish the game for his team.
The bowlers were very disciplined in their line and lengths and never allowed the batsmen to score freely, and also picked up wickets consistently. Luke Jongwe and Wesley Madhevere bowled well, picking up two wickets each. Muzarabani and Ngarava also managed to pick up a wicket each.
Zimbabwe would hope to continue the same performance and make a comeback in the series by winning the next match.
Pakistan:
Pakistan won the first match of the series and has taken the lead, but the performance was not up to their standards. They barely managed to win the game by 11 runs.
Skipper Babar Azam opened the innings and got out without scoring much. Still, his partner Mohammad Rizwan batted brilliantly, scoring an unbeaten eighty runs and helped Pakistan to post a decent total. At No.3, Fakhar Zaman also batted a little slow and didn’t score much.
The middle-order batsmen, Mohammed Hafeez, Danish Aziz, Haider Ali, and Faheem Ashraf, got out without disturbing the scoreboard and put a lot of pressure on Rizwan.
The bowlers did an excellent job of defending the total. Usman Qadir and Mohammad Hasnain bowled well, picking up three and two wickets, respectively. Haris Rauf and Mohammed Hafeez managed to pick up a wicket each.
Pakistan would want to win the next match and thus claim the series, but they need to improve their middle-order batting.

The pitch here is considered suitable for batting, but in the last match, we witnessed a low-scoring game, so it is tough to predict how the pitch will behave in the second T20I. Spinners and fast bowlers equally shared the wickets in the last match.
