Sikandar Raza will lead the home side in the T20 format, while Paul Stirling has been entrusted with captaincy duties for Ireland.

The upcoming series follows a closely contested encounter between the two nations earlier this year in January when they locked horns in a three-match T20I series in Harare, ultimately ending in a 1-1 draw. The teams now look forward to renewing their rivalry, with both sides boasting six wins and six defeats from their previous 12 T20I meetings, making for a compelling showdown on paper.
