South Africa are currently playing a warm-up fixture against England Lions ahead of their three-match Test series against England which begins on August 17. In the four-day game, South Africa won the toss and opted to bat. Khaya Zondo, batting at No.7, impressed for South Africa, as he scored a valuable 86-run knock. However, it was a huge error in judgement that cost him his wicket. Early on Day 2 of the match, pacer Sam Cook angled the ball in and it pitched just outside off. Zondo looked to leave the ball, but it kept coming in with the angle and hit the off-stump.
