Pakistan National Cricket Team has announced their playing XI for the final T20I against Zimbabwe National Cricket Team. The final match of the three-match series between the teams will take place at the Queens Park Club in Bulawayo on Thursday (December 5).
The Pakistan national cricket team has made four changes to its XI from the last match. Since the team led by Salman Ali Agha won the series, the management decided to test the strength of their bench and give chances to a few more youngsters in the last match.
Sahibzada Farhan will replace Saim Ayub in Pakistan’s XI for the final T20I against the Zimbabwe national cricket team. He will open the innings along with Omair Bin Yousuf, who played a decent role with the bat in the second match of the series.
The middle order will be the same for the Pakistan national cricket team heading into the third game. Usman Khan will take the wickets and bat at number 3, while captain Salman Ali Agha and Tayyab Tahir will take over the responsibility in the middle order for the third match.
Qasim Akram is another change for the Pakistan national cricket team ahead of the third match against the Zimbabwe national cricket team. He will replace Irfan Khan in the team. He will be the team’s all-rounder alongside Jahandad Khan in the final match.
Arafat Minhas replaced Abrar Ahmed in the team, while Mohammad Hasnain will play in place of Haris Rauf. Mohamad Abbas Afridi and Sufiyan Muqeem, who won the Man of the Match award in the last match, retained their place in the team for the last match of the series.
