Zimbabwe will lock horns with Thailand in the third and final T20I of the series at Takashinga Sports Club in Harare, on Monday, 30 August. Thailand levelled the series with a 53-run win in the second T20I.

Team News

Thailand had looked a much better side with both bat and ball. They have an excellent all-rounder in Nattaya Boochatham, who opens the innings, alongside the dangerous Natthakan Chantham, and is the leading wicket-taker of the series as well. Nannapat Koncharoenkai made a half-century in the first game.

No Zimbabwean batter has notched a half-century in this series. Modester Mupachikwa is the only one to reach double digits in both innings. The bowlers have also failed them, picking just seven wickets in the first two games.

Fantasy Tips

  • Among batters, pick Mupachikwa, Chantham and Naruemol Chaiwai.
  • Boochatham is having a terrific tour. She has been the main source of threat for the opponent batters. Choose him as a captain.
  • Onnicha Kamchomphu has picked up five wickets in two T20Is. She should be one of the bowlers for your fantasy team.
