Today cricket match prediction of Afghanistan vs Zimbabwe
After posting scores of 120 and 141 in the two T20Is followed by a disappointing 179 in the first ODI, not many expected Zimbabwe to pull themselves up and come up with a cracking all-round performance to level the series. Afghanistan were indeed handed a surprise, not just by the result, but the margin of it.
Not only did Zimbabwe find a way to handle their spinners after getting bulldozed by them on this tour, they were also able to silence a batting lineup that posted 333 in the first ODI, a score the African side managed to replicate in the previous encounter to ironically win by an identical margin.
To prosper in the series, Zimbabwe had to find a quick fix to nullify the threat of Afghanistan spinners. Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi were played out and gave away just 36 and 33 runs respectively. What Brendan Taylor and Sikandar Raza did exceptionally well was attack the pacers and the inexperienced Mujeeb Zadran.
