Zimbabwe vs Namibia T20I 2025: Pitch Report
The Queens Sports Club pitch in Bulawayo is at the moment bowler-friendly, especially for pacers. Early seam movement can cause problems for batters, and those in the crease will have to navigate swing and bounce. The toss-winning sides may opt to bowl first and take advantage of the conditions, trying to limit the opposition to a decent total.
Zimbabwe vs Namibia T20I 2025: Win Prediction
Zimbabwe comes in as slight favorites because of home conditions and experience, especially with Sikandar Raza and Sean Williams in good form. Namibia has produced solid T20 performances in the recent past and can counter Zimbabwe if their senior players click. Look for a close series where the winning margin in all three games could be small.
