Afghanistan has a terrific record against Zimbabwe in T20I, winning 9 of the 10 games

Zimbabwe are too much dependent on Sikander Raza and Sean Williams. Once hey fail, there is not much Zimbabwe can do.

Afghanistan will take on Zimbabwe in the second T20I. The match will be played at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium and is set to get underway at 2:00 PM local time.
Zimbabwe were brilliant in the Test series but we did expected them to struggle in the T20I series, exactly what happened as they were thrashed by 48 runs in the 1st game. Not much has change and we don’t expect Zimbabwe to trouble Afghanistan much. The wickets are more suitable to spin bowling and Afghanistan have plenty of quality options that won’t allow the Zimbabwe batsmen to get off their hook.
Also, Zimbabwe have a bleak bowling line up with not a single bowler who can run through a batting order. Talking about Afghanistan, they were clinical in the 1st T20I. The top order got runs, the spinners got the wickets, what else they want ?. They are a far superior team in these conditions and are red hot favourites to win the match,

AFG vs ZIM Toss Prediction
Sheikh Zayed Stadium is a stiff wicket to chase and the skipper that wins the toss might opt to bat
Pitch Report
The surface will be pretty flat but the slow nature of the wicket won’t make it easy for the batsmen to play their shots. It will get slower as the match progresses thus chasing won’t be easy.
Weather Report
The weather looks good for the match day. The temperature will hover around 30 degrees.

Afghanistan Team News & Playing 11
AFG Team News
Having won the previous game with ease, Zimbabwe won't be keen on doing too many changes in the playing XI.
AFG Key Players
Rahman Ullah Gurbaz - Rahman Ullah Gurbaz stroked a magnificent 87 of 45 balls in the previous game. He bats at the top, the best place to bat in these conditions thus we'll back him to have another good game.
Asghar Afghan - After a successful Test series, Afghan continued his good form in the 1st T-20I and smashed a solid 50. Expect him to perform well in the next game as well.
Rashid khan - The no 1 T-20 bowler is deadly in these conditions and was too hot to handle for the visitors in the previous game. We'll back to to continue troubling Zimbabwe.
AFG Team Form
Zimbabwe hasn't played a lot of T20 cricket but most of their players were part of the Test series. They'd look to perform better in the next match.
Afghanistan Predicted Playing 11
Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Karim Janat, Usman Ghani, Hashmatullah Shahidi, Asghar Afghan (c), Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, Amir Hamza, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fareed Malik
AFG vs ZIM Dream11 Prediction
Wicket-keeper
Rahman ullah Gurbaz at 9.0 is a solid pick. He stroked a top class 87 in the last game and can be backed to perform well in the next match as well.
Batsmen
Asghar Afghan at 9.0, Tarisai Musakanda and Tinashe Kamunhukamwe at 8.0 will be our batsmen. Afghan carried his good form from Tests and scored a solid half century in the last match. For Zimbabwe, Tinashe played well for his 44. Tarisai Masakadza is a gamble pick as he bats at the top and can score big.
All-rounders
Sikander Raza at 10, Mohammed Nabi at 9.5, Sean Williams at 9.5 and Ryan Burl at 9.0 will add to our strength. More than anything else, we have picked them as they're quality spinners and will enjoy bowling on the Abu Dhabi wicket. Apart from their bowling, Raza and Williams are best Zimbabwe batsmen while Nabi can be destructive in the final overs.
Bowlers
Rashid khan at 10, Naveen ul Haq at 8.5 and Fareed Malik at 8.0 will complete our team. Not much need to say about Rashid Khan and his quality. We have picked Fareed Malik as he bowled well in the last game while Naveen can get the new ball to move and might get some early wickets.
Captain/Vice-captain
Rahman Ullah Gurbaz will be our skipper while Sean Williams can be backed as his deputy.
All Rounder:Sean Williams(VC), Sikander Raza, Ryan Burl, Mohammed Nabi
Wicket Keeper:Rahman Ullah Gurbaz(C)
Bowler:Rashid khan, Naveen UL Haq, Fareed Malik
Zimbabwe Team News & Playing 11
ZIM Team News
We're expecting Zimbabwe to bring in Wellington Masakadza, Regis Chakabva and Prince Masvaure in the next game. It's not certain, but there is a high possibility of the same.
ZIM Key Players
Sean Williams - The skipper was in fine form in the Test series and will be hopeful to replicate his success in the shorter formats too.
Sikander Raza - Just like Williams, Zimbabwe rest their hopes on Sikander Raza. He a quality batsman and is a very handy bowler too.
Ryan Burl - Spinner are going to play a big role on this wicket thus we'll back Ryan Burl to a decent game.
ZIM Team Form
Zimbabwe has not won a single T20I since their series against Ireland in 2019

Who will win Afghanistan vs Zimbabwe 2nd T20?
Afghanistan decimated Zimbabwe in the last match and with the quality of players they have in their team, they are the firm favourites to win the match.
Rahman Ullah Gurabaz, Asghar Afghan, and Mohammed Nabi are the top batsmen for Afghanistan. Gurbaz is coming back from a brutal 87 while Asghar Afghan too fetched an impressive half century. Mohammed Nabi can be destructive in the final overs.
For Zimbabwe, they rest their hopes on Sikander Raza and Sean Williams, who’re their best batsmen along with Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, who also batted well.
Rashid Khan is the world’s top-ranked T20 bowler and will be a real threat for Zimbabwe along with Fareed Malik, who bowled well in the last match, and Naveen ul Haq.
For Zimbabwe, again, Sean Williams and Sikander Raza will be their main man with the ball along with Ryan Burl
In these conditions, Afghanistan are way too strong for Zimbabwe, especially with players like Rashid Khan and Mohammed Nabi in the team. They were brilliant in the last game and are expected to continue their good run.
