ZIM-A vs SA-A: Zimbabwe A will lock horns against South Africa A in the 2nd unofficial ODI at the Harare Sports Club.
It was a stellar weekend game as both teams performed extremely well. Being asked to bat first, the hosts provided a fitting response as they posted a mammoth total of 319/9. Due to a little bit of misfortune, Dion Myers missed out on a well deserved century by just four runs. Apart from that, Tadiwanashe Marumani scored a magnificent 73 ball 82, laying the foundation for a big total.
The duo of Lutho Sipamla and Dwaine Pretorius shined with the ball bagging three wickets each.
While chasing 320, South Africa showed a class act with the bat. Every batsman contributed with heaps of runs, especially fifties from Reeza Hendricks (52) and Janneman Malan (82) alongside Theunis de Bryn’s magnificent unbeaten 113 off 64 deliveries. South Africa A comfortably won the game by six wickets and 43 balls to spare.
Despite the disappointing loss, Zimbabwe’s Tapiwa Mufudza bagged four wickets in his ten over quota.

Pitch Report
Despite witnessing an action-packed game completely dominated by the batsmen, there was something in it for the bowlers early on. However, high scoring cameos took the match to the cleaners.
With the nature of the wicket leaning in favour of the batsmen at any point of time, the toss wouldn’t play a crucial role in the outcome of the game.
