Head-to-Head Record ZIM vs SA 

Zimbabwe and South Africa have faced each other only four times in the shorter format. The Proteas have been victorious in three games by heavy margins while their most recent encounter ended in a no result in 2022. 

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe just couldn’t compete in the Test series against South Africa as they lost both the games. They will be hoping for a better turnaround in the T20 tri-series. 

Their previous assignment in the shorter format was back in February when they hosted Ireland. Two of the games were washed out due to rain while Zimbabwe clinched one match by three wickets.

Sikandar Raza will continue to lead the side. Left-arm pacer Richard Ngarava returns after recovering from a back injury. Brian Bennett, who suffered a concussion during the Test series, has been cleared to play. 

Possible XI: Brian Bennett, Dion Myers, Wessly Madhevere, Sikandar Raza (c), Ryan Burl, Tony Munyonga, Tafadzwa Tsiga (wk), Wellington Masakadza, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava, Trevor Gwandu.

South Africa  

The Proteas were clinical in the Test series, with their young generation delivering solid performances. They will now shift their focus to the shorter format. 

South Africa haven’t played T20Is this year, with their last series coming in December. They defeated Pakistan 2-0 in the three-match series. 

It’s a new-look side for South Africa on this tour, with their frontline players rested. Rassie van der Dussen will lead the side and is likely to open the innings with Lhuan-dre Pretorius. Lungi Ngidi, Gerald Coetzee, Kwena Maphaka, Corbin Bosch, and George Linde could comprise the bowling attack.

Possible XI: Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Rassie van der Dussen (c), Reeza Hendricks, Dewald Brevis, Rubin Hermann (wk), George Linde, Corbin Bosch, Andile Simelane, Gerald Coetzee, Lungi Ngidi, Kwena Maphaka.
