Pakistan vs Zimbabwe, 1st ODI Highlights: Zimbabwe beat Pakistan by 80 runs (DLS method)

The first ODI between Zimbabwe and Pakistan in Bulawayo sees a new-look Pakistani side led by Mohammad Rizwan, with key players like Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi rested.

Pakistan has handed debuts to Hasebullah Khan, Aamir Jamal, and Faisal Akram, who are eager to make their mark at the international level. Zimbabwe, playing their first ODI series since January, hope to rebuild after missing out on the 2023 World Cup, with veterans Sikandar Raza and Sean Williams anchoring the side. The toss has been delayed due to earlier rain, but the skies have cleared, and play is set to begin soon.

Faisal Akram to Brandon Mavuta, OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Tossed up, outside off, teasing the batter to go for the lofted drive and Brandon Mavuta does exactly that but with no conviction. The ball travels straight to Mohammad Hasnain at mid off and he makes no mistake and takes it nice and easy around chest high for a simple catch. Maiden wicket in ODi for Faisal Akram!
