Fantasy tips for the 6th Match between Zimbabwe and New Zealand.

Zimbabwe (ZIM) and New Zealand (NZ) will lock horns in the sixth match of the T20 tri-nation series at Harare Sports Club. The hosts have been eliminated from the final race while New Zealand have reached there along with South Africa.

Zimbabwe have lost all three games in the tournament and will look to end it on a positive note. They lost to South Africa in the previous game by seven wickets after managing to post only 144 on the back of Brian Bennett’s 61 off 43.

The Black Caps smashed New Zealand by seven wickets in the previous game. Mitch Santner, Adam Milne, and Jacob Duffy picked two wickets each to restrict the opponents to 134. Tim Seifert then struck 66 not out in 48 balls.
