ZIM T20I Tri-Series: New Zealand, South Africa eye improvement with final looming
The fifth match of the ongoing Zimbabwe T20I tri-series will see a blockbuster showdown between New Zealand and South Africa on Tuesday at Harare Sports Club, Harare. South Africa take the field with huge confidence, having outclassed Zimbabwe in their last game on Sunday. With the defeat, Zimbabwe were knocked out of the tournament, as they have been unable to claim a single win in the series so far.
Meanwhile, both New Zealand and South Africa last met each other in the second match of the series, where New Zealand outmaneuvered South Africa, beating them by 21 runs. Now, with both sides riding high on confidence after victories in their last games, this clash will be nothing short of a thriller. Technically, both sides will be looking for improvement heading into Saturday’s final.
