The first ball is scheduled for 7.30 am GMT, but you can join us an hour ago for all the pre-match buildup. Until then, it’s cheers and goodbye!
Mohammad Rizwan says they are already focusing on the next match but happy with the way players performed. Shares they didn't think much about the first game, it's past for them and were looking forward to today's game. On Abrar Ahmed, he is a talented bowler, unfortunately, he was injured and hopefully, he can keep performing for Pakistan.
Saim Ayub wins the Player of the Match award. He says he is trying to stay in the present and not think much of what happened about in the last match. Tells the wicket was slower from one side and sloppy as well. Mentions they practise for all types of conditions.
Craig Ervine says today's wicket was a lot better that the first game but they failed to put in any substantial partnership. Tells the players need to take a look at themselves and put on a good performance. Shares Pakistan utilized the conditions well and even the conditions flattened in the afternoon.
...Presentation...
Zimbabwe batted first, but failed to post a total that would put pressure on the visitors. Their score of 145 never looked like a threatening one. Dion Myers was the lone bright spot, looking impressive during his stay at the crease. The Pakistani bowlers were on top of their game, with Abrar Ahmed claiming a four-wicket haul on his debut, while Salman Agha took three. Saim Ayub and Faisal Akram chipped in with a wicket each.
Zimbabwe's bowlers, who had inspired hopes of a repeat performance after their impressive showing in the first ODI, were left frustrated as they failed to make early inroads into the Pakistani batting lineup. The visitors' batting duo never looked troubled, and Pakistan ultimately strolled to a convincing victory, leveling the series in the process.
Pakistan dominated Zimbabwe in the second ODI, securing a comprehensive 10-wicket victory. Chasing a modest total of 145, Pakistan's opening duo of Saim Ayub and Abdullah Shafique made light work of the target, cruising to a century stand. Saim Ayub was the star of the show, scoring a magnificent century, while Abdullah provided solid support, finishing unbeaten on 32.
