Zimbabwe vs Pakistan 1st T20I Pitch Report:

The Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo is known for its surface that favors fast bowlers. The pitch has a history of assisting pacers, which could make life challenging for batsmen, particularly in the initial stages of the game. Given these conditions, batsmen will need to exercise caution and be wary of the movement and bounce on offer. As a result, winning the toss and opting to bowl first could prove to be a wise and strategic decision.
