SA vs ZIM T20 head to head records: South Africa vs Zimbabwe head to head in T20 history

SA vs ZIM T20 head to head: The SportsRush presents for you the Head to Head statistics for SA vs ZIM T20 World Cup match.

The 18th match of ICC T20 World Cup 2022 will be played between South Africa and Zimbabwe in Hobart tomorrow. Ninth match of the tournament to be played at the Bellerive Oval will also be last one to be played here in this World Cup.

The contest will resume an African rivalry as South Africa and Zimbabwe’s sixth T20I against each other will be their first match across formats in the last four years.

The last South Africa-Zimbabwe T20I was played at the Senwes Park where the home team had chased down a 133-run target with six wickets and 26 balls remaining under the captaincy of Faf du Plessis.

Having lost their last T20I series, South Africa would want to take confidence from a thumping victory over New Zealand in their only completed official warm-up match in Brisbane on Monday. Readers must note that the Proteas have won seven and lost five out of their 13 T20Is in 2022.
