Our cricket sides have always enjoyed visiting and playing cricket in Zimbabwe, and though our fans and followers will be unable to watch live-action, I am sure they will continue to support both the sides and their favourite cricketers like they have done since May 2020 through digital media," he added.Pakistan enjoy a 100 per cent win percentage against Zimbabwe in T20Is with victories in all 14 matches.
