Sri Lanka are all set to take on Zimbabwe in the second T20I of the series. Sri Lanka are touring Zimbabwe for six white-ball games, three One Day Internationals and three T20Is. Sri Lanka's Zimbabwe tour has been extremely fruitful so far. The Asian juggernauts defeated Zimbabwe 3-0 in the ODI series and they currently lead the three-match T20I series by 1-0. Sri Lanka will look to win the second T20I and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series.
The Lankans defeated Zimbabwe by 4 wickets in the first T20I. Courtesy of Pathum Nissanka (55 off 32 balls), Kusal Mendis (38 off 35 balls), and Kamindu Mendis' (41* off 16 balls) knock, Sri Lanka made light work of Zimbabwe and chased down 175 runs with four wickets and five balls remaining. Kamindu, who played the decisive and quickfire knock, was later adjudged the player of the match.
