Presentation time...
Earlier today, after being asked to bat first, the Kiwis recovered from a precarious 70/5 to post a competitive 173/5, thanks to a crucial partnership between Tim Robinson and Bevon Jacobs. In response, South Africa faltered with the bat. Matt Henry and Jacob Duffy led the bowling effort with three wickets apiece, while Ish Sodhi chipped in with two, and James Neesham added one. Mitchell Santner contributed a moment of brilliance in the field to dismiss Rassie van der Dussen. For South Africa, Kwena Maphaka and Senuran Muthusamy delivered solid spells, but it wasn't enough to prevent their first loss of the tournament. They now sit with one win and one defeat, while New Zealand start strong with a win.
New Zealand kick off their Tri-Series campaign with a composed and clinical performance, securing a 21-run victory over South Africa. Chasing 174 for victory, South Africa started brightly through Lhuan-dre Pretorius, who played a lively cameo of 27. However, his dismissal triggered a collapse, with the Proteas slipping to 62/5 by the ninth over. Dewald Brevis and George Linde both contributed brisk 30s to revive hopes, but their untimely dismissals stalled the momentum. Gerald Coetzee fought valiantly towards the end, but the target proved too steep. South Africa were eventually bowled out for 152 with 10 balls remaining, handing New Zealand a confident start to the series.
