T20I Squad
In the T20I format, Sikandar Raza will lead the team. The selectors have retained the squad that performed well in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 sub-regional qualifier in Kenya, emphasizing continuity and team chemistry. Notable omissions from the T20I roster include Ervine, Williams and Joylord Gumbie.
“We felt it was essential to maintain the same T20I squad that excelled in Kenya. This continuity allows the team to build on the cohesion and confidence that drove their outstanding performance,” Mutendera said.
“Facing a high-calibre side like Pakistan is a tremendous opportunity for us to gauge our progress and showcase Zimbabwe’s potential on the international stage. We are confident that both our ODI and T20I squads will be competitive,” he added.
