In the unfolding story of cricket's great upsets, Zimbabwe has written another chapter — defeating Australia by 23 runs in the T20 World Cup 2026 and cementing a perfect record against one of the sport's most formidable nations. On a slow wicket that rewarded discipline, Brian Bennett's 64 and Blessing Muzarabani's historic 4/17 combined to produce something rarer than victory: proof that belonging is earned, not granted. Zimbabwe now stands undefeated in all T20 World Cup encounters against Australia, a distinction no other nation on earth can claim.
