Zimbabwe Vs South Africa Live Score, T20I Tri-Series Match 4: ZIM 7/0 (2)

Zimbabwe Vs South Africa Live Score, T20I Tri-Series Match 4: ZIM 29/2 (6)
Corbin Bosch comes up with a double blow and that means Zimbabwe once again have a really poor start to the match. Bosch has taken two wickets in his two overs and given away just four runs. Sikandar Raza is on the crease and the captain will once again have to do some heavy lifting if Zimbabwe are to score big.
Zimbabwe Vs South Africa Live Score, T20I Tri-Series Match 4: ZIM 59/3 (10.3)
Sikandar Raza too is back in the pavillion and things just keep getting worse for Zimbabwe. The run rate just has not taken off despite a set Brian Bennett on the crease who is batting slower than run-a-ball. South Africa will be happy with what their bowlers have done.
Zimbabwe Vs South Africa Live Score, T20I Tri-Series Match 4: ZIM 113/3 (15)
A brilliant partnership going on between Ryan Burl and Brian Bennett. 69 added by the duo off 41 balls and Zimbabwe are now looking to build up to a decent score. The hosts will still need some big hitting to go over 170 though.
Zimbabwe Vs South Africa Live Score, T20I Tri-Series Match 4: ZIM 125/5 (17)
Two wickets in last two over has again changed how things were. Brian Bennett is gone and that will help South Africa save some runs here. Ryan Burl is still there and Zimbabwe would want him to hit a few sixes to end things on a high for them.

Innings Break!
Zimbabwe 144/6 (20)
Another underwhelming finish and Zimbabwe finish with less than what they should have had. Ryan Burl remains unbeaten at 36 off 31. Two fours and a six for Burl but overall a poor end to an innings that one point seemed like would touch 160.

South Africa need 74 runs in 60 balls
A 17-run 10th over from captain Sikandar Raza has totally changed the complexion of the game and Zimbabwe who were hanging on have been pushed behind in the game. They desperately need a wicket or we could be headed towards a one-sided ending.
