TOURNAMENT: 3rd ODI 2024
The third and final ODI of the series between Zimbabwe (ZIM) and Afghanistan (AFG) will be played at the Harare Sports Club in Harare on December 21, 2024.
While the first game of the series was washed out due to persistent rain after only 9.2 overs could be bowled, the second one played out to its entirety.

Pitch Report
The venue is sure to aid spinners due to the used deck being used. Batters would have to play cautiously in the first few overs to get the hang of how the pitch is behaving.
