South Africa beats Zimbabwe to reach T20 tri-series final vs New Zealand

Rubin Hermann hit four sixes and 63 runs as South Africa beat Zimbabwe by seven wickets with 16 balls remaining in a T20 tri-series match. The comfortable win means South Africa and New Zealand will contest the final on Saturday after Zimbabwe lost for the third straight time. Chasing a target of 145, Hermann and captain Rassie van der Dussen (52 not out in 41 deliveries) led the chase at Harare Sports Club. They took South Africa from 22-2 to 128-3 when Hermann, who also hit three fours in his 36-ball innings, was bowled by Richard Ngarava. Van der Dussen was there at the end with Dewald Brevis as South Africa scored 145-3 in 17.2 overs, winning the match with a wide bowled by Trevor Gwandu. Zimbabwe earlier lost the toss and scored 144-6 in its 20 overs. Brian Bennett top-scored for the hosts with a 43-ball 61, which included three sixes and seven fours. Bennett shared a 78-run partnership for the fourth wicket with Ryan Burl (36 not out in 31 balls). Fast-medium pacer Corbin Bo

Zimbabwe pacer Matigimu punished for dangerous play against Proteas

Zimbabwe pacer Kundai Matigimu has been fined 15 per cent of his match fee and handed a demerit point for throwing the ball in an "inappropriate and dangerous" manner during the opening day of the ongoing second Test against South Africa here. The incident occurred during the 72nd over of South Africa's first innings, when Matigimu fielded a ball in his follow-through and threw it at batter Lhuan-de Pretorius, hitting him on the wrist at close range. Matigimu breached Article 2.9 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel. It pertains to "throwing a ball (or any other item of cricket equipment) at or near a player in an inappropriate and/or dangerous manner during an International Match," the ICC said in media release. The pacer admitted to the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by match referee Ranjan Madugalle, and there was no formal hearing. This was the Zimbabwean's first offence within a 24-month period. South Africa are in complete control

The best knock any SA batter has ever played in Tests: Pietersen on Markram

Former England captain Kevin Pietersen on Saturday rated Protea opener Aiden Markram's measured hundred against Australia in the World Test Championship final as the best innings by a South African batter in Test matches. Markram's 207-ball 136 guided SA to a five-wicket victory over the Australians, as the Proteas ended a 27-year-long wait to win an ICC trophy. "Probably the best innings any South African batter has ever played in Test match cricket. It might not go down as the most attacking or entertaining if you look back at South Africa's Test history, Pietersen, a JioStar expert, said. Pietersen said the century became very significant in the context of the World Test Championship final. But when you factor in the expectation, the stage, and the pressure after failing in the first innings, it was extraordinary. Whether you're a batter or a bowler, when your country is counting on you and you have to deliver that pressure is immense. He lost (Ryan) Rickelton early, yet still
