THE PREDICTION

Zimbabwe pulled off a stunning shock victory in the second T20 to level the series as they somehow managed to defend to defend their poor 118/9 when batting first by bowling the tourists out for just 99. That win was their first over Pakistan in 16 attempts and after losing 7/21 in the run chase, there will be a lot of pressure on Pakistan coming into this game. Their key players are under pressure to do much better while the selectors will be heavily criticised for resting players if they do not get the win here. The likes of Hassan Ali and Shaheen Shah Afridi will surely come back in while the hosts will be hoping Sean Williams is passed fit. The tourists will surely be sparked into a major reaction here although the pitch will be difficult to bat on once again with scores between 120-150 quite likely. It is hard to see them slipping up again but this game will be far closer than the odds would suggest. Ultimately it is hard to see Zimbabwe pulling off another shock so expect a big reaction from Babar Azam’s men to win the series.
