At a glance
AI overview
Australia get the nod at 82% in this 3rd ODI, with Zimbabwe at 18%. It is a strong lean, not a lock.
Harare Sports Club hosts Zimbabwe against Australia in the 3rd ODI, number 3 in a 3-match Australia tour of Zimbabwe, 2026. It is listed for Sunday 20 September 2026, with the start at 19:30 IST. Zimbabwe have home conditions on their side, which our model counts as a small edge.
Zimbabwe's edge is their spin attack, while Australia's is their pace attack. The side whose strength suits Harare Sports Club gets the first say. Harare Sports Club is a high-altitude ground where the ball comes onto the bat and seam helps early, so we expect a balanced surface with a first-innings score around 292–339 for Australia and 227–265 for Zimbabwe.
Conditions look settled, so the surface and the toss should matter more than the weather. The toss lean is to bowl first. Most captains chase on a true surface because they can pace the innings to a target.
