You kept watching the IPL auction, on the other hand, this team beat Pakistan badly in ODIs.
When everyone’s eyes were on the mega auction of IPL 2025, the Pakistan cricket team lost another ODI match. Pakistan is currently preparing for the Champions Trophy but has suffered a major setback following the defeat to the smaller team. Although the result of the match was announced through DLS due to rain, even if the match had been completed, Pakistan would have lost. The way Zimbabwe played today has also exposed the Pakistan team in the ODIs. There are still two more games left in the series. Pakistan will have to win at any cost.
The Zimbabwe team could not play their 50 overs
In the first ODI match played between Pakistan and Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe, who batted first, scored only 205 runs. The team could not even play their quota of 50 overs and could only play 40.2 overs. After this, it seemed that the Pakistani team would comfortably win this match, but who knew that Pakistan would show an even worse game than this. There was a time when Zimbabwe’s 7 wickets had fallen for just 125 runs but even after this the team came a long way and took the score beyond 200.
The Pakistani team had lost 6 wickets with a score of only 60.
After this, when Pakistan started batting, the team could only score 60 runs with the loss of 6 wickets in 21 overs. Meanwhile, it rained and the game had to be suspended. After this, there were hopes that if the rain stopped the match would go ahead, but Pakistan’s condition was very fragile. When the rain did not stop, the Zimbabwe team won the match by a huge margin of 80 runs according to the Duckburth Lewis method. The defeat against a team considered small like Zimbabwe would have left deep wounds in Pakistan.
There are two more games left in the series
