Harare Stadium Pitch Report
The first three games witnessed the Irish batters playing with relative ease, whereas the Zimbabwean batters struggled. However, nothing indicated that batting was inherently difficult. Ireland would prefer to bat first, as they have done in the initial three games. On the other hand, Zimbabwe should consider batting first if they win the toss to switch things up. Chasing hasn’t proven successful for them, as the batters have succumbed under scoreboard pressure.
