Partnerships key for Proteas

DEAD RUBBER: RANKING POINTS ON OFFER AGAINST NZ

- Wesley Botton

Partnerships will be key, both with bat and ball, if South Africa are to hit back against New Zealand in their T20 International tri-series clash in Harare today, according to all-rounder Corbin Bosch.

With both teams having already qualified for the final to be held on Saturday, the match is a dead rubber, but world ranking points are on the cards, as well as bragging rights, and perhaps a boost in confidence ahead of the series decider.

And the Proteas have even more to play for as they look to bounce back after falling to the Black Caps in their only defeat of the series thus far last week.
