After conceding defeats to Afghanistan in the ODI and T20I series, the Zimbabwe cricket team will now be aiming to pull off a comeback in the Tests. Afghanistan beat Zimbabwe in the T20I series by a margin of 2-1 and secured a win in the ODI series by 2-0. Afghanistan and Zimbabwe will now be involved in a two-match Test series scheduled to start on Thursday, December 26. The opening Test will be played at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. The upcoming series against Afghanistan will witness Zimbabwe hosting their first-ever Boxing Day Test at home in 28 years. The series will also mark their first New Year’s Test as well.
