South Africa vs Zimbabwe preview: Zimbabwe will look to continue their surprise run at the T20 World Cup when they open their Super 12 campaign against neighbours South Africa in Bellerive on Monday. The Craig Ervine-led side played confident cricket and topped the group stages, essentially knocking out two-time champions West Indies. Prior to the tournament, they won eight of their last 10 games and also stunned Australia in an ODI match as well and have the likes of Sikandar Raza and Ervine in good form to give themselves a better push in a tournament where they are surrounded by higher quality teams. South Africa, on the other hand, are in better shape as a team than their last T20 World Cup, where they couldn’t go beyond the Super 12 stages. Since then, they have played 13 T20Is but have only faced quality opponents like India and England during the period. They have one of the fierce bowling attack led by Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje and have a quality spin department in Keshav Maharaj and Tabraiz Shamsi. Their main strength lies in their batting as likes of of David Miller and Heinrich Klaasen have entered the tournament in rich form while presence of Quinton de Kock Reeza Hendricks and Aiden Markram top the order add further power. Squads South Africa: Temba Bavuma (c), Quinton de Kock, Heinrich Klaasen, Reeza Hendricks, Keshav Maharaj, Aiden Markram, David Miller, Lungi Ngidi, Anrich Nortje, Wayne Parnell, Kagiso Rabada, Rillee Rossouw, Tabraiz Shamsi, Tristan Stubbs, Marco Jansen Zimbabwe: Craig Ervine (c), Ryan Burl, Regis Chakabva, Tendai Chatara, Bradley Evans, Luke Jongwe, Clive Madande, Wessly Madhevere, Wellington Masakadza, Tony Munyonga, Blessing Muzarabani, Richard Ngarava, Sikandar Raza, Milton Shumba, Sean Williams Read all the Latest News ****, Trending News ****, Cricket News ****, Bollywood News ****, India News and Entertainment News here.

The game has been washed away due to rain. South Africa and Zimbabwe will share a point apiece. The Proteas were looking absolutely dominant in this encounter. A lot of credit to Quinton de Kock for playing that kind of a knock

The covers are coming on again as it has started raining again. South Africa are 51/0 in three overs after the target was revised. The Proteas need to chase 64 in 7 overs. The match hasn’t been officially called-off though, but it seems that the points would be shared. We have 8 minutes before the cut-off time.

A bad news again. Rain is back and so are the covers. We have another halt here. It’s going to be disappointing for South Africa if the game is not completed. They have been dominant so far

That’s a David Miller masterclass in the field. Madhevere pushed one to extra cover where Miller was standing and called for run. There was a small collision between Madhevere and Sean Williams in the middle. Meanwhile, Miller collected the ball and hit a bull’s eye at the wicket-keeper’s end to send the batter packing. Williams goes for 1 off 1

After smashing a maximum on the very first ball, Chakabva has edged the second to the wicket-keeper behind and is caught. Good delivery from Ngidi as he just pulls the length and scalps an important one
