Special Bets on the ZIM vs SL, 2nd T20I Match 2025

The Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka 3-match T20i series has started with a positive note for the visitors but not for the hosts. Sri Lanka clinched a victory in the 1st T20i fixture, and the credit goes to their top-order batters. Even after scoring a big number, Zimbabwe faced an unfortunate loss, and their bowling unit came out as the primary reason for their loss. ZIM vs SL 2nd T20i match is scheduled to take place on Saturday at the Harare Sports Club. 

 

Sri Lanka is coming up with a win, and they will have the required confidence to continue the momentum. The hosts won the toss and elected to bowl first. However, their bowlers received a slow start and failed to control the run-rate of the opposition. When the turn came for the Zimbabwe bowlers to add the winning touch, they failed to do the job right. The bowling unit of Zimbabwe failed to break the top-order partnership, and hence the chase became easier for Sri Lanka.

 

In this article, we bring you a collection of special bets for the ZIM vs SL Match from the trusted betting sites in India.

Batsman (Sri Lanka) will hit 50 runs @ 1.80 - Battery Bet

 

The primary reason for Sri Lanka’s win in the 2nd T20i was their batting unit. They have some of the best T20 batters in the squad. Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Kusal Parera, Charith Asalanka, and Kamindu Mendis are some of their top batters. In the 1st ODI, Pathum Nissanka (55 off 32) and Kusal Mendis (38 off 35) started the match on a strong note, and Kamindu Mendis (41 off 16) gave the finishing touch at the lower end to complete the chase.

 

Overall, Pathum Nissanka is the leading run-scorer for Sri Lanka in the T20i format this year. He has managed to collect 189 runs in 5 matches at an average of 37.80 and a strike rate of 147.65. Pathum Nissanka has also scored a single fifty this year.

 

Kusal Mendis is also a key contributor to the team. In 2025, he has scored 147 runs in 5 T20i matches at an average of 29.40 and a strike rate of 132.43. He has also managed to score a single fifty.

 

We can expect Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis to score the majority of the runs and a half-century in the Saturday match.

Top Batter Zimbabwe

 

In the first 1st T20i, Brian Bennet came out as the leading run-scorer for the team. He opened the game for Zimbabwe and went on to score 81 off 57 balls at a strike rate of 142.11. Sikandar Raza was the 2nd highest run-scorer for the team with 28 off 22 balls at a strike rate of 127.27.

 

We suggest that Brian Bennet and Sikandar Raza will be the safest bets, and Tony Munyonga will be a risky bet.

Top Bowler Zimbabwe

 

In the first T20i fixture, Richard Ngarava came out as the top bowler for the team. He scalped 2 wickets in 4 overs at an economy of 4.75. Blessing Muzarabani, Tinotenda Maposa, Brad Evans, and Sikandar Raza scalped a single wicket each in the game.

 

I will pick a safe bet with Richard Ngarava, but Ryan Burl will be the risky bet.

Top Bowler Sri Lanka

 

Sri Lankan bowlers received a slow start to the game, but Dushmantha Chameera handled the situation well in the 1st T20i. He was the leading wicket-taker for the team with 3 wickets in 4 overs at an economy of 7.50.

 

I will pick Dushmantha Chameera as the safest bet and Roston Chase as the riskiest bet.
