The third and final match of the three-game T20I series between Zimbabwe and Afghanistan is set to take place at the same venue as the previous two clashes: Harare Sports Club.
This game promises to be a thrilling decider, with the series currently tied after Afghanistan’s commanding 50-run victory in the previous encounter. The win was powered by an outstanding all-round performance, led by skipper Rashid Khan and Naveen-ul-Haq, both claiming three wickets each. Additionally, Darwish Rasooli shone with a brilliant half-century, earning him the Player of the Match award.

Harare Sports Club Pitch Report:
The Harare Sports Club in Zimbabwe features a pitch that provides an equitable contest between batters and bowlers. On sunny days, the wicket dries quickly, offering ideal conditions for batters to score freely in the early stages of the match. However, as the game progresses, the surface starts to favour spinners, amplifying their effectiveness. In contrast, overcast conditions give seam bowlers an edge, as the increased moisture in the air and on the pitch enhances ball movement, creating significant challenges for batters.
