Zimbabwe Women are preparing for their first-ever tour of Pakistan, with a packed schedule of three One-Day Internationals followed by three Twenty20 Internationals. The ODI leg begins on May 3 and forms part of the ICC Women’s Championship cycle for 2025–29, while the T20I series starts on May 12. Karachi will host the entire tour, with all six matches slated for the National Bank Stadium.

- The three-match T20I series begins on May 12.
- All six fixtures—three ODIs and three T20Is—will be held at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.

What to expect from Zimbabwe’s landmark trip
With the tour marking Zimbabwe Women’s maiden visit to Pakistan, the series offers both teams an important opportunity to build momentum ahead of the ICC Championship phase. The ODIs, starting May 3, carry added weight for the championship race, before attention shifts to the shorter format with the T20Is commencing on May 12—again all at Karachi’s National Bank Stadium.
