CHATOOGRAM, Sept 20, 2019 (BSS)- Afghanistan captain Rashid Khan won the
toss and elected to bat first against Zimbabwe in their third match of Tri-
nation T20 series on Friday at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium.
Zimbabwe captain Hamilton Masakadza will retire from the International
cricket after the match.
The Southern African nation has already been eliminated from the race of
final after conceding three straight defeats but they want to bid a fitting
farewell to their captain by winning the match.
Zimbabwe, however, fielded an unchanged side, which lost their last match
to Bangladesh 39 runs.
Afghanistan who already confirmed final alongside Bangladesh brought up
three changes to the squad.
Karim Janat, Najeeb Tarakai and Fareed Ahmad replaced by Shafiqullah
Shafiq, Dawlat Zadran and Fazal Niazai who made his T20 debut with this
match.
