T20 WC: Cricket Fraternity Lauds Zimbabwe's Clinical Win Over Australia
Pallekele International Cricket Stadium: The cricket fraternity on Friday rose in unanimity to hail Zimbabwe's magnificent performance as they beat the 2021 T20 World Cup champions Australia by 23 runs in their second match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Friday.
Zimbabwe scored 169 while batting first and then bundled out Australia for just 146 runs in 19.3 overs with the help of a four-wicket haul by Blessing Muzarabani.
Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan hailed Zimbabwe's bowlers, who did a big damage to Australia's top order. "Tall quicks in Muzarabani & Evans, add Ngrava in this. Quality all-rounders. Led by the ever-aggressive Sikandar Raza. This Zimbabwe T20 side is shaping up nicely. Beating Australia is never easy, but Zimbabwe has done it twice in T20 World Cup history now." Pathan wrote on X.
