The United Arab Emirates cricket team toured Zimbabwe in April 2019 to play four One Day International (ODI) matches.[1] [2] [3] It was the first time that the United Arab Emirates played a Full Member side in a bilateral series.[4] [5]
Ahead of the tour, Zimbabwe named a 27-man training squad.[6] Zimbabwe's regular captain, Hamilton Masakadza, was ruled out of the tour due to injury, with Peter Moor named as the ODI captain in his place.[7] Also missing for Zimbabwe was experienced batsman Brendan Taylor, who was ruled out due to a calf muscle tear.[8] Zimbabwe Cricket announced that the profits from the third ODI match of the tour would go to the Cyclone Idai relief efforts.[9] Zimbabwe's former captain, Graeme Cremer, worked as a coaching consultant for the UAE team for the tour, after Cremer moved from Zimbabwe to Dubai earlier in the year.[10]
Zimbabwe won the series 4–0.[11]
