Zimbabwe (ZIM) aur Australia (AUS) ke beech teen match ki ODI series ka pehla mukabla Tuesday, September 15 ko Harare ke Harare Sports Club mein khela jayega.

The Chevrons (Zimbabwe) ne apni pichli ODI series July mein Bangladesh ke khilaaf Harare mein kheli thi. Unhone pehle do matches behad hi qareebi margin se jeete the, lekin teesre match mein unhe karari haar ka samna karna pada. 2-1 se mili is series win se unka confidence zaroor badhega jab wo Australia ke khilaaf utrenge, jo unke liye ek bohot badi chunouti pesh karne wali hai.

Doosri taraf, Australia ka aakhiri ODI assignment bhi Bangladesh ke khilaaf hi tha. Ye series June mein Dhaka mein kheli gayi thi. Ek inexperienced Australian team pehle do matches mein bina koi badi takkar diye haar gayi. Unhone aakhiri match ek wicket se zaroor jeeta, lekin ye sirf ek consolation win hi rahi kyunki wo series 2-1 se haar chuke the.

## ZIM vs AUS: Probable Best Performers of the Match

### Probable Best Batter: Cooper Connolly

Cooper Connolly ne Australia ke pichle ODI match mein ek behtareen innings kheli thi. Is opening batter ne mushkil conditions mein 134 balls par 149 runs banaye the aur Australia ko whitewash se bachaya tha. Travis Head aur Mitchell Marsh ki wapsi ke baad ab unka No. 3 par khelna tay lag raha hai. Umeed hai ki ye khiladi is match mein bhi ek important role play karega.

### Probable Best Bowler: Blessing Muzarabani

Blessing Muzarabani past mein Australia ke liye sabse badi musibat rahe hain. Tuesday ko hone wale is match mein sabki nazrein is bowler par tikki hongi. Unki height unhe ek extra advantage deti hai, khas kar is venue par jahan pacers ko accha carry milta hai. Agar wo apni line aur length sahi rakhte hain, to wo Aussies ke liye kafi khatarnak sabit ho sakte hain.
