His inning ended when caught by Pakistan skipper Babar Azam off the bowling of Danish Aziz, who was making his second appearance for the tourists.

Fellow opener Brendan Taylor, who missed an 11-run first T20 match loss two days ago due to illness, lasted only seven balls before being caught by Mohammad Hafeez off a Faheem Ashraf delivery for five.

Pakistan are touring Zimbabwe after winning one-day international and T20 international series against South Africa.

The final T20 match against Zimbabwe is scheduled for Sunday and will be followed by two Tests, beginning on April 29 and May 7.
