ZIM vs NZ: Players to watch out for

Here are two players who can be influential for their teams in tomorrow's contest.

Sikander Raza - Zimbabwe

Although Zimbabwe faced a massive defeat in their first match of the series against South Africa, it was all-rounder Sikender Raza who shone brightest for them. Raza, who now plays in nearly every T20 tournament in the world, scored an unbeaten 54 from 38 balls, his 15th T20I fifty. Although Raza could not take any wickets with the ball in hand, we all know how his smartness can come in handy for the hosts.

Tim Seifert - New Zealand

The Kiwi wicket-keeper batter did not score that big in their win against South Africa in the first match. However, with 271 runs in his last 6 T20I matches at a strike rate of 199.26, he is a threat at the top of the order. Against a weaker Zimbabwen bowling line-up, Tim Seifert will surely be eyeing a big score in Harare.
