Preview

Pakistan Women are set to face Zimbabwe Women in the 1st T20I of the Zimbabwe Women tour of Pakistan 2026 at the National Stadium Karachi on Tuesday, May 12.

Pakistan Women will head into this match with high confidence after completing a dominant 3-0 whitewash in the ODI series. Their batting unit looked in outstanding form throughout the series, while the bowlers consistently delivered under pressure. Gull Feroza was one of the standout performers and will once again be a key player for Pakistan in the T20 format.

Meanwhile, Zimbabwe Women struggled in the ODI series and now face another difficult challenge in the shortest format. However, players like Beloved Biza and Kellies Ndlovu showed positive signs with the bat and will be crucial for Zimbabwe Women if they want to compete strongly in this opening T20I.

Pakistan Women appear to have the stronger and more balanced squad on paper, especially with home conditions in their favour. Zimbabwe Women will need a much-improved bowling performance to trouble the hosts.
