Taylor was pleased with the performance of his team, as everyone fought hard against a stronger opposition. Despite being whitewashed in the series, Zimbabwe showed great character and did not allow Pakistan to win easily.
According to the African team’s captain, “It’s a massive boost for us to know that we are playing good cricket but we need to be a little more consistent. We showed better character. Everyone performed well, especially in bowling and fielding.”

However, facing Pakistan was a different thing altogether for the African team. They still came up with a spirited effort and challenged the Men in Green in every format of the game.

Although Zimbabwe lost the three-match One Day International (ODI) series by 3-0, the team did not allow the opposition to walk away with easy victories.
Pakistan completed the clean sweep by winning the two Twenty20 matches of the series, but they were once again tested and had to earn their victory.
Taylor will be eying a similar performance against the Kiwi team, but will also hope to win one or two games in the series.
