ZIM vs NZ: The final group match in the T20I Tri-Series before the final will be played between Zimbabwe and New Zealand. The hosts have been kicked out while the Black Caps are in the final. This upcoming contest will be live from Harare Sports Club, starting at 4:30 PM on Thursday.
Sikandar Raza and his men have not been able to match the strength of the other two strong sides. They have lacked experience, and it has shown in their performance. Only a few batters have looked comfortable, while the bowling has looked off-color. It has been completely off from their point of view.
But New Zealand has been in total contrast in their performance. It was expected of them to be the best side among the three. And they did it consistently. In every game, a new star has stepped up and taken the team to the win. That is why they have won all three games played so far.

ZIM vs NZ: Pitch Report
It is not easy to bat at Harare Sports Club for a new batter. The bowlers have enough to trouble the batters. The pitch has nice carry and bounce. But the surface in the first innings will be dry, and it will be difficult to adjust. In the five games played in this series, four have ended in favor of bowling first, which indicates how this pitch behaves across two innings.

Dream11 Prediction: Zimbabwe have had tough times in this Tri-Series. The other two sides are experienced than them, and they have failed miserably. Brian Bennett is the only batter that has looked in control for Zimbabwe. The bowlers have not been among wickets. There is not one issue, and they might need an overnight miracle to win this game.
New Zealand have had three different match-winners in three games. In all three games, one batter of their top order has won Man of the Match. That shows how good their top order is performing. Then, their experienced bowlers are making use of the conditions. That is why they are strong favorites to win this game.
