Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) on Wednesday confirmed that the Zimbabwe senior men's team, which participated in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, is now en route back home after the International Cricket Council (ICC) arranged alternative travel following recent disruptions in transit.

Pandya was named Player of the Match for his all-round performance, where he first hit an unbeaten 23-ball half-century and then bowled three overs, conceding just 21 runs.
The 39-year-old, who made his T20I debut in 2013, reached the milestone in his 132nd match. He now has 3,016 runs in 132 appearances (127 innings) at an average of 26.22 and a strike rate of over 136. His tally includes one century and 16 half-centuries. With the ball, Raza has picked up 104
