Mohammad Hafeez - Hafeez’s record against Zimbabwe makes him a must buy: 251 runs and 13 wickets in just 9 matches, that is close to 1+ wicket and 28 runs per match. Stat alert: He has done a double of 3+ wickets and 50-plus score in a single match against Zimbabwe a record 3 times.

Wesley Madhevere - He had a decent ODI series with 98 runs in 3 matches and certainly carried that momentum in the T20s as well with scores of 24 and 70*. Thus in this entire tour, he is among points in every match; plus he can pick up a wicket or two as well.

Sean Williams - A fifty and a century was scored by Williams in the ODIs and he has certainly carried that form in the T20s as his scores read 13 and 25. As context, in his last 5 T20Is against Pakistan he has scored 150 runs and taken 3 wickets.

Haris Rauf - He is in a purple patch in T20s as in his last 5 T20 matches he has taken a total of 13 wickets and has never been wicketless; thus guaranteed points in each match.

Blessing Muzarabani - The 24 year old was the highest wicket taker in the ODI series with 7 wickets and has also continued the rhythm in T20s with performances of 2/33 and 2/26. As context, in his short T20I career he has taken 13 wickets in 8 matches with being wicketless in only 2 matches.

Wahab Riaz - A look at Wahab Riaz’ last 5 T20 matches: 0/31, 2/37, 3/36, 1/39, 5/21. Thus we can see that he has been among wickets in every match barring just one which was the most recent but given his stature he comes back strongly after every off match.

Haider Ali - The young 20 year old sensation has already scored 127 runs in his short international T20 career (3 matches) which includes 2 fifties and a SR of 151; all of which have come in the past 3 months.

Babar Azam - With back to back fifties (51 and 82) Azam is a no brainer pick. A look at his recent form in T20Is: 276 runs in the last 5 matches including 5 fifty plus scores and a 21; thus guaranteed points in each game. 

Brendan Taylor - With scores of 3 and 20 so far in the T20s, Taylor is looking a bit rusty but given that he is too good a player, a big one is about to come. Also, if not with the bat, he can give you wicket keeping points.

Probable XI

Pakistan: Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam (c), Haider Ali, Mohammad Hafeez, Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Khushdil Shah, Faheem Ashraf, Wahab Riaz, Usman Qadir, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Hasnain.

Zimbabwe: Brendan Taylor (wk), Chamu Chibhabha (c), Sean Williams, Wesley Madhevere, Sikandar Raza, Ryan Burl, Elton Chigumbura, Tendai Chisoro, Tendai Chatara, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava.

Preview

All set then, for the final T20I of the series. Pakistan have comfortably swept aside Zimbabwe in both games so far and don't reasonably seem to have any issues with their unit.

For all the promise shown by Zimbabwe in the first and third ODI of the series, they have fallen flat in the T20Is. Their batting simply does not have enough to offer, with plenty of overdependence on the likes of Brendan Taylor and Sean Williams. Their bowling is not bad but not threatening either.

Pakistan will look to give some opportunities to those players in their squad who have not played. Having said that, it seems a harsh call to leave someone out, as this is the last game for quite some time. Their next assignment is on 18th December, 2020 against New Zealand.
