SA Vs Zim Team News:

SA-

• With Faf du Plessis’ recovery from shoulder surgery not yet complete, one of South Africa’s selection dilemmas is likely to be solved. If he doesn’t make it then AB de Villiers can come back in
• The Proteas will still need to decide whether they need six or seven batsmen in the conditions. Either way, du Plessis confirmed that spinner Keshav Maharaj will play.

ZIM-

• Despite failing to make an impact in his first longform games, Zimbabwe believe Solomon Mire is worth persisting with since the opener has the ability to put them on the front foot early on. That settles the top four, while Sikandar Raza, Graeme Cremer, Kyle Jarvis and new seamer Blessing Muzarabani are all certain picks.
• But how Zimbabwe balance their side and choose their remaining batsmen will be interesting to see. Brendan Taylor is expected to keep wickets.
