Pakistan vs Zimbabwe ODI and T20I Series, Fixtures, Schedule and Dates

After the 2-0 series loss to Bangladesh, the focus shifts to the white-ball series against Zimbabwe for Pakistan

Pakistan Cricket has been receiving immense criticism across the world following a 2-0 loss against Bangladesh in the, recently concluded, Test series at home. With a new captain in Shan Masood, Pakistan has suffered yet another Test series loss and, this time, at home only.

Bangladesh hammered them by 10 wickets in the first Test and it was followed with a 6-wicket win over Pakistan in the second Test. The former Pakistan cricketer has faced criticism from the team and asserted that the team’s future looks dark.

Amidst this, the Men in Green are set to play a three-Test series against England and it will be followed by a three-match ODI series against Australia. However, the fans on Twitter are more concerned with the three-match ODI series against Zimbabwe, which is set to start on 24^th November 2024.

Having lost their first ever Test series against Bangladesh, the fans are concerned that they might lose against Zimbabwe too.

Pakistan last played a white-ball cricket series in the T20 World Cup 2024. They exhibited a disappointing performance and were knocked out early in the competition. On March 31, 2024, Babar Azam was re-appointed as the captain of the white-ball team.

However, his performance has drawn much criticism, of late. Babar failed to perform in the ICC World Cup 2024, followed by another horrendous outing in the Test series against Bangladesh.

His average in ODI cricket has declined to 34, while his average in T20Is is 38. Now, it will be interesting to see if the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) takes away the captaincy from Babar or lets him continue leading the side.

It is worth mentioning that Zimbabwe has beaten Pakistan twice in the 18 matches that they have played against each other. Looking at their current form, the fans would be worried that they might not lose a series against them.

Zimbabwe last played a five-match T20I series against India. Zimbabwe began with a 13-run victory but it was followed with four consecutive losses, thereby suffering a 4-1 defeat.
