Top Picks for ZIM vs PAK Dream11 Match:

Top Picks ­– Batsmen

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam dismissed early in the 1^st T20I, but we all know how good a batter he is when he gets settled. He is always hungry for runs and we can expect a good score from him in the 2^nd T20I.

Top Picks ­– All-Rounders

Luke Jongwe impressed with his outstanding performances with both bat and ball in the 1^st T20I. He picked up 2 wickets and later scored an unbeaten 30 runs from 23 balls.

Faheem Ashraf can make a difference at any time of the match. He can bowl with the new ball and also in the death overs. Ashraf can also be a floater with the bat and has the ability to hit huge sixes.

Top Picks ­– Bowlers

Blessing Muzarabani bowled exceptionally well in the first T20I. He picked up one wicket at an economy of under 6 runs per over. He has 20 international wickets to his name in the T20 format.

Usman Qadir was the pick of the bowlers from Pakistan in the 1^st T20I, picking up 3 wickets at an economy of just over 8 runs per over.

Top Picks ­– Wicketkeepers

Mohammad Rizwan is one of the best wicketkeeper-batsmen in the world at the moment. He was the player of the match in the 1^st T20I for his important knock of 82* runs from 61 balls.

ZIM vs PAK Must Picks for Dream11 Fantasy Cricket:

Suggested Playing XI No.1 for ZIM vs PAK Dream11 Fantasy Cricket:

Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam (c), Brendan Taylor (vc), Wesley Madhevere, Mohammad Hafeez, Fakhar Zaman, Luke Jongwe, Faheem Ashraf, Wellington Masakadza, Usman Qadir, Blessing Muzarabani

Mohammad Rizwan (c), Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, Wesley Madhevere (vc), Ryan Burl, Faheem Ashraf, Richard Ngarava, Usman Qadir, Blessing Muzarabani, Mohammad Hasnain

ZIM vs PAK Risky Captaincy Choices:

Luke Jongwe has shown a lot of promise with his all-around abilities in the 1^st T20I. You can take a risk by picking him as your fantasy team skipper.

Mohammad Hafeez is currently having an ordinary run with the bat, but he bowled his full quota of overs in the 1^st T20I, picking up one wicket at an economy of under 6 runs per over.

Player you should avoid:

Regis Chakabva bats in the middle-order and is unlikely to get a chance to play a long knock. In any case, Mohammad Rizwan is a far better option from the wicketkeepers.
