Zimbabwe's Resistance

In response, Zimbabwe faced a challenging task and struggled early in their innings. Despite losing five wickets for just 85 runs, they fought back in the latter half of the match. Captain Sikandar Raza led Zimbabwe's charge with his second T20I century, hitting five fours and nine sixes. However, his efforts fell short as Afghanistan maintained their lead to secure a significant victory.

This win not only gave Afghanistan an unassailable lead in the series but also marked a historic moment for Rashid Khan, who became the first bowler to reach the 200-wicket milestone in men's T20I cricket.
