NZ vs SA: Players to watch out for
Here are two players who can be influential for their teams in today’s contest.
Matt Henry - New Zealand
New Zealand will lean on Matt Henry in the match against South Africa because he has been brilliant with the ball in the series. In two matches, he has claimed six wickets at an average of 10, which is pretty impressive. Against the Proteas, New Zealand will need their best bowler to be in form and get those early wickets to win the match.
Dewald Brevis - South Africa
Young Dewald Brevis has been incredible in the ongoing series. He has scored 89 runs in three matches at an average of 44.50. So, he is the go-to middle-order batter for the Proteas and the most reliable one as well. Hence, he will surely be the player to watch out for against New Zealand.
