Their World Cup history includes a famous debut win over Australia at Trent Bridge in 1983 and back-to-back Super Six appearances in 1999 and 2003. After missing the 2019 and 2023 editions, home advantage gives them a real chance to make an impact.
Their group match against India at Victoria Falls on 24 October is likely to be one of the most-watched fixtures of the tournament outside the knockouts.
