The Zimbabwe Cricket Board has named a dynamic and well-rounded squad for the upcoming series against Pakistan, set to take place at home from November 24 to December 5.
The series will feature three One-Day Internationals (ODIs) and three T20 Internationals (T20Is), all to be played in Bulawayo.
Zimbabwe’s squad for the Pakistan series includes exciting new talent and seasoned campaigners, aiming to build on recent successes while challenging one of cricket’s strongest teams.
Zimbabwe has included three uncapped players in their ODI squad for this important series—Trevor Gwandu, Tashinga Musekiwa, and 21-year-old Tinotenda Maposa.
While Gwandu and Musekiwa have already represented Zimbabwe in T20I cricket, Maposa is yet to make his international debut. The young fast bowler has shown promise in domestic cricket, having picked up 4 wickets from just 3 List A matches at an economy rate of 6.29, making him a potential game-changer in the pace attack.
Despite the influx of young talent, Zimbabwe’s ODI squad remains anchored by experienced players. Craig Ervine, who will captain the team in the ODI format, leads a side that boasts the presence of established names like Sikandar Raza, Sean Williams, and Blessing Muzarabani. These players will provide stability and experience to the Zimbabwe squad for the Pakistan series.
