At the Harare Sports Club in Harare this Thursday, Zimbabwe and Afghanistan will face off in the 2nd ODI. Craig Ervine, captain of Zimbabwe, decided they’d be fielding first after winning the toss. Following a first game washout, each team is eager for a complete game and a definitive outcome. Azmatullah Omarzai’s previous spectacular performance in overcast conditions makes us wonder if he can keep it up today. Local batter, Ben Curran, didn’t make much of an impression in his first game.
He’ll likely seize today as an opportunity to shine with a top-notch batting performance in Zimbabwe and Afghanistan. Luckily, weather predictions indicate no rain, which is excellent news for both teams as they strive to stand out in this match. In Team Zimbabwe, we have Tadiwanashe Marumani, Ben Curran, Dion Myers, captain Craig Ervine, Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Brian Bennett, Newman Nyamhuri, Richard Ngarava, Tinotenda Maposa, and Trevor Gwandu.
Team Afghanistan comprises of Sediqullah Atal, Abdul Malik, Rahmat Shah, captain Hashmatullah Shahidi, Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi, wicketkeeper Ikram Alikhil, Rashid Khan, Naveed Zadran, AM Ghazanfar, and Fazalhaq Farooqi in Zimbabwe and Afghanistan.
