Akshay Thakur - Wednesday, Nov 19, 2025Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe 2nd T20 Tri-Series 2025, Live Streaming Details: Zimbabwe lost the first match of the T20 tri-series to Pakistan and will now face Sri Lanka in the second match. The second match will be played on Thursday at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium at 6:30 PM IST.
Sri Lanka had a disappointing ODI series against Pakistan, losing all three matches and being eliminated. Despite this, they will be looking to bounce back in this T20 series. This tri-series tournament will play a crucial role in Sri Lanka's preparation for the upcoming T20 World Cup 2026, which Sri Lanka will also co-host. Sri Lanka has not been at its best in this format recently. They started the Asia Cup 2025 tournament well, but suffered three consecutive defeats, leading to their Super Four exit. The good news for Sri Lanka is their top-order batsman, Pathum Nissanka, who is currently in excellent form.
Zimbabwe can do wonders on their day, especially with their unpredictable performance. However, their campaign got off to a disappointing start, losing to Pakistan by 5 wickets in the first match. Zimbabwe scored 147/8 in the first innings thanks to knocks from Brian Bennett and Sikandar Raza, but were unable to defend this modest total against Pakistan's in-form batting line-up. This defeat ended their streak of four consecutive victories in this format. Since they have already secured a place in the upcoming T20 World Cup, this tournament is also crucial for their preparation.
