Zimbabwe National Cricket Team vs Sri Lanka National Cricket Team Match Scorecard: Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bowl first against Zimbabwe in the third and final T20I of the series at Harare Sports Club on Sunday, September 7, 2025. Sri Lanka captain Charith Asalanka said his team would use the conditions wisely and target the shorter side to hit sixes. "We would have bowled first as well. We did score a lot of runs in the first game. We are at a stage where toss shouldn't dictate the results. We have a lot of variety in our bowling attack. At times you get more wickets towards the shorter part of the ground. Sometimes it is risk vs reward. I got hit in the ribs. Just carrying a little of bit niggle.As a professional, we need to manage these niggles. This is a very good oppurtunity to put our best foot forward. Same team," he said during the toss.
Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza said his side would have bowled first as well. "We gonna have a bowl. Venue stats says bowling first helps. We should use the conditions wisely. We will try to hit sixes on the shorter side. A big defeat. But it is important to come back strong and fresh. In T20s, there is always pressure. The team who make less mistakes wins more often," Asalanka said.
Zimbabwe pulled off a stunning victory in the second T20I on Saturday. Led by Sikandar Raza, they bowled out Sri Lanka for 80, their second-lowest T20I total, and chased the target in under 15 overs with five wickets remaining.
