Afghanistan face Zimbabwe in second T20I in Sharjah on Thursday
Afghanistan seek to seal the series against Zimbabwe in the second T20I at Sharjah after a 37-run win in the opener.
Afghanistan meet Zimbabwe in the second T20I at Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Thursday. Afghanistan won the opening match by 37 runs and lead the three-match series 1-0. Zimbabwe need a win to keep the series alive.
Afghanistan are expected to field the same side that produced the first-match victory. Zimbabwe may consider changes after their top order failed to respond to Ernest Masuku's two powerplay wickets. The surface at Sharjah is described as batting-friendly in the early overs before offering grip to spinners.
The match starts at 8:00 PM IST and will be streamed on FanCode.
CricHubb Take
Afghanistan's series lead gives them the freedom to experiment with their middle order without risking the outcome.
