Probable Top Performers from ZIM vs PAK
Probable Best Batter: Saim Ayub
Pakistan’s left-hand batter Saim Ayub could be the best batter in the first ODI against Zimbabwe. Ayub, in the last ODI series against Australia, was the highest run-scorer of the series. In three games, he scored 125 runs at an average of 41.66, with his best knock of 82, coming in the second game. The southpaw will be looking to play the same brand of cricket in the upcoming first fixture of the ODI series.
Probable Best Bowler: Haris Rauf
Pakistan’s pacer Haris Rauf could be the best bowler in the upcoming clash against Zimbabwe. With the track helping the pacers, Rauf will be looking to make good use of the conditions. The speedster bowls at a good pace and gets some seam movement earlier in the innings. Rauf will be hoping for a similar showing in the series opener. In the previous tour to Australia, he bagged 10 wickets in three games at an average of 12.00.
