Pakistan vs Zimbabwe: After suffering a tragic last over defeat against arch-rivals India in their first match of the 2022 T20 World Cup, Pakistan are all set to make a stellar comeback as they take on Zimbabwe in their second match of the tournament.
Zimbabwe, who were saved in their previous match against South Africa as it was called off due to poor weather, will face their first real challenge in this tournament against the mighty Pakistan team. They played well in the group stage matches and somehow qualified for the Super 12, but this is where they will have to prove themselves.

Pakistan vs Zimbabwe: Winning Prediction
Although Pakistan lost their first match of the tournament against India, it was a close call and up until the very last over, the match was pretty much in their favour. It was due to the heroics of Virat Kohli that it turned in India’s favour in the last 9 deliveries. Well, it does not change the fact that Pakistan is a top team and still one of the favourites to win the tournament.
We thus expect Pakistan to register an easy win over Zimbabwe in their upcoming match.
