Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan 1st T20I: Live Streaming, Match Details, and Squad Lineups
Zimbabwe is set to host Afghanistan in the first T20I of their three-match series on Wednesday, December 11, at the Harare Sports Club in Harare. This series follows Zimbabwe’s recent white-ball assignments against Pakistan, where they lost both the ODI and T20I series but managed a thrilling win in the final match, boosting their morale for the upcoming series.
Afghanistan, led by Rashid Khan, is known for its aggressive batting and lethal bowling. The team has been in good form, having thrashed Bangladesh 2-1 in a three-match ODI series and retaining their head coach Jonathan Trott until 2025. However, Afghanistan has not played a T20I in over five months, which could be a factor in the match.
The match is scheduled to start at 5:00 PM IST, with the toss taking place at 4:30 PM IST. For viewers in India, the match will not be telecasted on TV but will be live streamed on the FanCode app and website.
The squads for both teams have been announced. Zimbabwe will be led by Sikandar Raza and includes players like Brian Bennett, Dion Myers, and Ryan Burl. Afghanistan’s squad features key players such as Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Mohammad Nabi, and the spin duo of Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
This series is part of a multi-format tour that includes a three-match T20I series, a three-match ODI series, and a two-match Test series. Zimbabwe will be looking to reverse their recent fortunes against a strong Afghan side.
