Preview for Dream11 Fantasy

A lot of water has flown under the bridge in Zimbabwe Cricket in the last 8-10 months. The Senior Men’s team will be playing its first Test match since the ICC lifted the suspension on them and Sri Lanka have visited the country for the two-match series. The opening game is set to be played from Sunday as the hosts under Sean Williams’ leadership will look to start on a positive note.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, lost their recent T20I series to India while they last played Tests in Pakistan and went down by 1-0 in the two-match rubber. They have taken a huge call of dropping Kusal Perera from the team with Dinesh Chandimal likely to play in the XI. They are the favourites going into the series but Zimbabwe will be hungry for success after what has transpired in the recent past.

Weather Report/Condition

Well, the forecast is not at all promising in Harare over the next five days. Rain is likely to play spoilsport more than once on the first three days and it will stay cloudy for the most parts. However, the last couple of days will see the sun shining brightly and it remains to be seen if it will be enough to eke out the result.

Pitch Report

Generally, the surface at the Harare Sports Club is slow and low. However, it will nip around in the first session with the dark clouds hovering over the stadium. Spinners will come into play late in the match but for that to happen, enough cricket has to be played on the pitch. The team winning the toss is likely to bat first but overcast conditions might tempt them to bowl as well.

Injury and Availability News:

Tendai Chatara has been ruled out due to a bicep injury.
