Pakistan vs Zimbabwe, first one day, Malik and Tanveer Join back


Bulawayo : Shoaib Malik and Sohail Tanveer has joined back in the first one day of three matches against Zimbabwe here. Malik has joined back after ‘break’ of over a year as Pakistan  .

Left arm fast bowler Sohail Tanvir also made a similar comeback to the team after a string of injuries put him out of action.

Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat on a dry pitch that will definitely put the brakes on scoring when the spinners get their hands on the ball. 

Aizaz Cheema and Adnan Akmal are making ODI debuts for Pakistan while opening batsman Imran Farhat has also made a surprising return to the squad. 

Zimbabwe’s squad wears the same look as the one that beat Bangladesh 3-2 in an ODI series recently. 

Zimbabwe:  Chamu Chibabhaba, Vusi Sibanda, Hamilton Masakadza, Brendan Taylor (capt), Tatenda Taibu (wk), Malcolm Waller, Greg Lamb, Elton Chigumbura, Prosper Utseya, Ray Price, Chris Mpofu 

Pakistan: Mohammad Hafeez, Imran Farhat, Younis Khan, Misbah-ul-Haq (capt), Shoaib Malik, Umar Akmal, Adnan Akmal (wk), Sohail Tanvir, Saeed Ajmal, Junaid Khan, Aizaz Cheema.

Pakistan were 100 for after 19 overs, Younas khan not out on 62 on 49 balls
