Zimbabwe tour Pakistan Oct / Nov 2020 ODIs & T20s

Pretty happy to see Zimbabwe win even if it's a second string Pak side. They've been struggling for a long time now and it's a victory that should give them some much needed confidence considering the mess their board and team has been in the past few years. Pakistan came back quite well tbf after losing half their side within 20 overs and it had to take Babar and some support from the lower order to come back into the game.

But still, you gotta give credit to Zimbabwe for dismantling the Pak chase at the start, wasn't just the case of a classic Pak fearsome tweak up :D.

This is not a completely second string PAK team. It's at least 75-80% at strength. I don't know the logic behind playing Wahab. If he is to play the 2023 WC then he deserves his spot.

This is not at all surprising. We can make a PlanetCricket team and ask Pakistan to chase if we win the toss. We have a chance to beat them. Zimbabwe is still an international team.

They are driven by corruption and a trivial and idiotic media. Anyone that considers making Shoaib Akhtar a national selector is not making a cricket team but a local jumbo circus.
 
Fantastic batting by Haider and of course Babar, but it was great to see Usman Qadir make a mark. He had a tough time in the domestic circuit, and almost qualified for the Australian team, but glad to see him shine as the backup to Shadab. Maybe he could replace Imad.
 
What's the point of having a series with Zimbabwe and not testing your bench strength! Why is Imad Wasim even playing? Where is Rohail Nazir?
 
ANyone heard Sana Mir's commentary - its so horrendous. Makes me want to watch the game on mute.

Interesting series so far, although I really don't get the hype for Haris Rauf. Seems like someone with huge anger issues and a little pace to go with it. Seems to spray it like a fire hose. Bit similar to Musa.
