SA vs ZIM 3rd T20 Dream11 Team Prediction and probable XI: Preview

Hello and Welcome to our preview for South Africa vs Zimbabwe 3rd T20I match. We are covering SA vs ZIM 3rd T20 Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI for the third T20I match. The match is to be played at Willowmoore Park, Benoni.

Zimbabwe went down once again to mighty South Africans as the home team clinched the T20I series 2-0. Now only one T20I is remaining in between these two nations and this is the last chance for Zimbabwe to restore some pride with a good performance.

In the second T20I, Zimbabwe batted first and despite a good start from the captain Hamilton Masakadza of 21 from 16 balls failed to keep up the run-rate. Sean Williams top-scored with 41 from 28 balls and Brendan Taylor supported him with a steady 29 from 35 balls. Ngidi, Paterson and Frylinck each picked two wickets.

South Africa began well in the reply and was never under any serious threat of losing. All the batsmen enjoyed good start no one, however, went on to score big, neither was there any need. The home team managed to chase the total with 26 balls remaining. Sean Williams grabbed two wickets for Zimbabwe.
