The first Test match between Pakistan and Zimbabwe will be played today. The match will start at 12:30 pm Pakistan time.
Pakistan will be led by Babar Azam while Zimbabwe will be led by Brendon Taylor. Pakistan is likely to field two fast bowlers and two spin bowlers while Faheem Ashraf could be part of the all-round team. Among the spinners, Noman Ali, who performed well against South Africa, and young sniper Zahid Mahmood are likely to be given a chance as Yasir Shah is not part of the squad.
For the first time since 2017, Zimbabwe will play a Test match against a team other than Afghanistan and Bangladesh.
