In the second Twenty20 international, Ireland recovered to defeat Zimbabwe and tie the series at one. It seems like the Final will take place as the third T20I.
Zimbabwe batted first in the second Twenty20 International and lost wickets quickly. To secure a safe total of 165 for 5 in 20 overs, Zimbabwe was led by a fantastic partnership of 77 runs for the sixth wicket between Clive Madande and Ryan Burl.
Ireland likewise lost its first several batters early in the chase. Harry Tector contributed a significant 48-run middle-order knock. With four wickets remaining in the twentieth over, Ireland’s bottom-order batsmen fulfilled their potential and won the match.
ZIM vs IRE Team Preview & Squads
Zimbabwe
Sikandar Raza leads Zimbabwe in scoring during the series with 65 runs. Unfortunately, he is banned from the game so we expect a good game from Sean Williams (c), Clive Madande (wk), Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, and Tadiwanashe Marumani.
With four wickets taken, Richard Ngarava leads Zimbabwe in wicket-taking this series. Apart from that, Trevor Gwandu showed a respectable performance in the last match. So without Raza, he will be a performer to watch out.
