Zimbabwe Cricket has selected a 15-member roster for an upcoming Twenty20 triangular competition in Pakistan that will include the host nation and Sri Lanka as preparation ahead of next year's ICC Men's T20 World Cup. Sikandar Raza retains the captaincy for matches beginning November 17 against Pakistan in Rawalpindi, with a second group encounter versus Sri Lanka scheduled two days later before the series shifts to Lahore for additional round-robin fixtures on November 23 and 25.
Pace bowler Blessing Muzarabani will miss the tournament due to a back problem, creating an opportunity for Newman Nyamhuri to join the traveling party. Social media reaction revealed frustration among supporters who questioned selection decisions and argued that domestic performers such as Antum Naqvi deserved inclusion over veteran squad members.
