ZIM vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis
It was one-way traffic from the moment Pakistan's spinners took control, leaving Zimbabwe struggling to find their footing with the bat, ball, and field. Pakistan followed up with a near-perfect display in the second ODI, cruising to a dominant ten-wicket victory to level the series in style. The final ODI of the series will be played at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, on 28 November from 1 pm onwards.
Opener Saim Ayub lit up the second ODI with a blistering knock, smashing a 53-ball century—the fastest by a Pakistani in ODIs, barring Shahid Afridi. His explosive innings ensured Pakistan chased down the modest target of 146 with 17 overs to spare. Earlier, Pakistan's spinners set the tone with a commanding performance after being asked to bowl first, with debutant Abrar Ahmed leading the charge, claiming 4 for 33 as Zimbabwe crumbled in just 32.3 overs.
The stage is set for an intense decider in the third ODI, with both teams eager to claim the series. Pakistan will look to build on their momentum, especially with their spinners and in-form opener Saim Ayub leading the charge. Zimbabwe, on the other hand, will aim to regroup and deliver a stronger performance across all departments. The spotlight will be on experienced players like Sikandar Raza to step up and guide the team to a competitive showing. With both sides having tasted victory, expect a fiercely contested match as the series hangs in the balance. Pakistan has never lost a bilateral series against Zimbabwe.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Zimbabwe Preview
Zimbabwe heads into the third ODI with the series on the line and a point to prove. After a promising start in the first game, where they outclassed Pakistan with an all-round display, their performance dipped in the second, as the visitors exposed weaknesses in all departments. Joylord Gumbie will open the innings with Tadiwanashe Marumani. Gumbie has 164 runs in the last 9 games while Marumani scored 29 in the first game. Dion Myers will come at number three. Myers was their leading run-scorer (33) in the second ODI. The top-order averages below 20 in the ODI format for Zimbabwe which can be a concern.
Zimbabwe will need their senior players like skipper Craig Irwine, Sikandar Raza, and Sean Williams to anchor the innings with the bat in the middle. Irwine who has 3400 runs in 121 ODIs has an average of 20 against Pakistan. The batter to watch out for will be Sikandar Raza. Raza has 314 runs against Pakistan in 13 ODIs. With the ball, he has claimed 8 wickets against the visitors. He was the player of the match in the first ODI for his 39 runs with the bat and 2 wickets with the ball. With over 5000 runs, Sean Williams has the highest average for Zimbabwe in the ODIs. Against Pakistan, he has 647 runs in 21 ODIs with a century and three half-centuries.
Richard Ngarava will lead the bowling attack with Blessing Muzarabani, Trevor Gwandu, and Brandon Mavuta. Ngrava has 11 wickets in the last 8 ODIs at an economy of 4.75. But he has a poor record against Pakistan. On the other hand, Muzarbani has 11 wickets in 9 ODIs against Pakistan at an economy below six. He will be the bowler to watch out for. He picked up two wickets for 9 runs in the first ODI.
Key Players: Sikandar Raza, Sean Williams, Blessing Muzarbani.
ZIM Over/Under Betting Tips
Sean Williams has scores of 23 & 31 in the first two ODI matches played against Pakistan, he has gotten off to good starts but failed to convert them into big scores. With the series on the line and a chance to create history at their own backyard. At Bulawayo he has scored 1005 runs in 30 ODI matches and he is averaging 37.2. Given his recent form and record at the venue, we back Williams to come good in this fixture.
Zimbabwe Predicted Playing XI:
Tadiwanashe Marumani (wk), Joylord Gumbie, Dion Myers, Craig Ervine (c), Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Brian Bennett, Brandon Mavuta, Richard Ngarava, Blessing Muzarabani, Trevor Gwandu.

Pakistan Preview
Pakistan enters the third ODI brimming with confidence after a dominant all-round performance in the second game. Their spinners, led by debutant Abrar Ahmed, have been pivotal in putting Zimbabwe under pressure, and they will look to replicate that success in the decider. Sam Ayub scored the second-fastest ton for Pakistan in the second ODI. He has 249 runs in the five ODIs so far at a strike rate of 120.28. He will be the batter to watch out for. Abdullah Shafique will open with him. Shafiq remained not out on 32 in their 10-wicket win in the second ODI. Kamran Ghulam will come at number three.
Skipper Mohammad Rizwan will lead the middle order with Agha Salman & Tayyab Tahir. Since 2023, Rizwan has 1116 runs in 26 innings at an average of 65. This includes one century and 7 half-centuries. All-rounder Agha Salman has picked six wickets in the two ODIs. But Pakistan will look forward to runs from his bat. Debutant Tahir didn’t get a chance to bat in the second ODI. In List-A tournaments he has 3296 runs in 75 games at an average of 47.
Aamer Jamal will lead the bowling unit with Abrar Ahmed and Haris Rauf. Both Jamal and Ahmed had their debuts in this series. Ahmed picked up four wickets in the second ODI. He will be the bowler to watch out for. Rauf is the most experienced bowler in the squad with 80 wickets in 40 ODIs. In the last 10 ODIs, he has 19 wickets with an economy below 5.
Key Players: Abrar Ahmed, Sam Ayub, Haris Rauf.
PAK Over/Under Betting Tips
The left-handed batter scored 113 runs in 62 balls in the 2nd ODI, the third-fastest hundred by a Pakistani batter in ODIs. With the 3rd ODI to be played at the same venue, Ayub, well aware of the pitch conditions and coming into this game on the back of a magnificent hundred, is expected to once again dominate against the Bangladesh bowlers and score over 26.5 runs.
Pakistan Predicted Playing XI:
Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafique, Kamran Ghulam, Mohammad Rizwan (c & wk), Agha Salman, Tayyab Tahir, Irfan Khan, Aamer Jamal, Haris Rauf, Faisal Akram, Abrar Ahmed.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The weather at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo is expected to be cloudy on match day, with temperatures ranging between 19 and 27 degrees Celsius. Winds will blow from the southeast at 11-21 km/h. Rain is predicted between 11 am to 5 pm. It is known for producing belters, where batsmen can play through the line on even-paced wickets. However, in recent times, spinners have made their mark.
ZIM vs PAK Pitch Report
The 3rd game of the series will be played at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo, on 28 November from 1 pm onwards. The stadium has a capacity of 9000 spectators. The stadium has hosted 94 ODIs and 19 T20Is.
Total Over/Under Betting Tips
The average total match fours hit per ODI match in the series is 31.5, but none of the teams have been able to play the full 50 overs quota in the series so far. As this the series decider, expect both teams batting units to come good and we predict the total match fours to be over 37.5
A combined total of 10 sixes were hit in the first two ODIs (6 in the 1st ODI and 4 in the 2nd ODI). The pitch has favored the bowlers, and both teams' batters have struggled to hit sixes. Given the conditions for the 3rd ODI, we predict another low-scoring game with the total sixes count likely to be under 7.5.
Both teams have one coin toss apiece in the series and we are backing Zimbabwe to win the Coin toss in this fixture.
Toss: To Bowl
In 94 ODIs played here, the team chasing the target has won on 50 occasions. The average first-innings score is 233 with the highest total of 399 ed by Pakistan against Zimbabwe. The team winning the toss should bowl first.
ZIM vs PAK
Winning Prediction
As the series stands at 1-1, the third ODI between Zimbabwe and Pakistan promises to be a decisive encounter. Pakistan's comprehensive ten-wicket victory in the second match, highlighted by Saim Ayub's rapid century and Abrar Ahmed's impressive debut, has given them significant momentum. Given Pakistan's current form and depth in both batting and bowling, they appear to have the upper hand. They have never lost an ODI series against Zimbabwe
We predict that Pakistan will defeat Zimbabwe.
