South Africa cruised to a commanding 328-run win over Zimbabwe in the first Test of the two-game series at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo. With that victory, they have taken a 1-0 lead in the two-match series. However, the visitors will be without senior spinner Keshav Maharaj in the second Test, sidelined due to a groin strain. This absence forces a change not just in the bowling attack but also in leadership. All-rounder Wiaan Mulder will captain South Africa for the first time in his career.

Queens Sports Club Pitch Report:

The Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo is renowned for its well-balanced pitch in Test cricket, providing opportunities for both batters and bowlers. In the early stages, especially during morning sessions, seamers can utilize the new ball to generate movement. As the game progresses, the surface typically settles, becoming more conducive for batsmen to construct long innings. From Day 3 onward, the pitch starts to show signs of wear, with cracks emerging that aid spinners through variable bounce and turn. Success on this pitch often hinges on patience and discipline. Overall, it offers a competitive and even playing field for both sides.
