ZIM vs SL Head-to-Head Records- Key Statistics
The ZIM vs SL rivalry is eight matches old as far as T20I cricket is concerned, with Sri Lanka majority of the games, six to be precise, and Zimbabwe succeeding in getting the better of their opponents twice so far.
The record of the last five matches between the two teams is also in favour of Sri Lanka, with them winning three matches as compared to Zimbabwe's two.
One of those wins for Zimbabwe came in the ongoing three-match T20I series when the Sikandar Raza-led side was able to get rid of Sri Lanka in the second T20I by five wickets.
The two teams have played two matches at the Harae Sports Club, with both sides winning one game each.
Although Sri Lanka is favored to win the game if we compare the quality of resources both teams have at their disposal, the Charith Asalanka-led side could not afford to be complacent.
The reason is the win that Zimbabwe achieved in the last match to keep the three-match series alive with the third T20I to be played on Sunday (September 7).
The Sikandar Raza-led side will look to do the same in the final game of Sri Lanka's multi-format tour of Zimbabwe, comprising two ODIs and three T20Is.
But for that to happen, the home team would bank on the middle-order batters to capitalize on the good platform provided by the openers.
Other than the openers, senior batters like Sikandar Raza and Sean Williams will have to take the responsibility of getting the team over the line if they end up batting second in the upcoming match.
As far as Sri Lanka is concerned, the visitors would wish to put their best foot forward in the final game to come out victorious and carry the momentum into the Asia Cup.
