Zimbabwe to face Netherlands in 3 ODIs

The Zimbabwe Chevrons will play Netherlands in three-match one-day international (ODI) matches that will be played at Harare Sports Club. The first match is on
tomorrow. Former captain Brendan Taylor returns to the squad. Zimbabwe won the corresponding series 2-1 which was played in the Netherlands in June.

Zimbabwe head coach, Heath Streak yesterday said:

It’s not an official ODI series, but we will not take the Dutch lightly. We will try to win every game, but what’s important is that we will give our guys time in the middle ahead of tougher assignments.
