Match 17 of the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifiers 2023 will be played between Zimbabwe and The United States of America at the Harare Sports Club. Both teams have had completely contrasting campaigns thus far in the tournament. Having won all three of their matches, Zimbabwe are currently occupying the top position in Group A. On the other hand, the USA have had a tough time, losing all three of their matches and finding themselves at the bottom of Group A.
In their most recent match, Zimbabwe faced off against the West Indies, who won the toss and chose to field first. Zimbabwe made a solid start with a strong opening partnership, which was followed by a couple of impressive partnerships during the middle overs. This helped them set a target of 268 runs. The West Indies began their chase on a positive note, but they struggled to maintain the momentum and were eventually all out for 233 runs, falling short by 35 runs.
The USA, on the other hand, faced off against the Netherlands, who won the toss and chose to field first. The USA’s middle-order batsmen and lower-order batsmen made valuable contributions, taking the team to a respectable total of 211 runs. Despite a shaky start, the Netherlands secured a five-wicket win.

Zimbabwe vs United States of America Match Prediction
Zimbabwe are the firm favourites to win this game. They have not lost any of their games so far, while the USA have not won any of their games. Both their batting and bowling has lacked depth and unless the team as a whole delivers, USA are highly unlikely to win the next game.
