THE LOWDOWN

SOUTH AFRICA

• South Africa have long suffered with the stigma of being known as international cricket’s resident ‘choke artists’, having never won a major ICC trophy despite being in a number of promising positions down the years and they’ll be desperate to end many years of hurt in Australia.
• Quinton de Kock is crucial for them at the top of the order, whilst the likes of David Miller and Rilee Rossouw should also prove extremely important with the bat alongside the Proteas’ pace bowling arsenal.

ZIMBABWE

• Zimbabwe secured a place in the ‘Super 12’s’ following a five-wicket victory over Scotland, the perfect way to bounce back following defeat vs West Indies, as they successfully chased down 133 to win.
• Sikandar Raza has enjoyed a fantastic T20 World Cup so far and showed his importance with both bat and ball once again against Scotland, securing a second Player of the Match award in three group games

THE PREDICTION

Zimbabwe are certainly not to be taken lightly, but they will rightly come into this match as heavy underdogs. South Africa boast a mouth-watering combination of power-hitting and quick bowling, which should serve them well across the competition. The Proteas also well covered in the spin-bowling department and all the foundations are in place for them to reach the later stages of the tournament. Expect South Africa to wind up too strong for Zimbabwe and triumph here in Hobart.
