South Africa face Zimbabwe at the Namibia Cricket Ground today in the fourth match of the T20I Tri-Series, with the tournament finely balanced after each team picked up two points.
A seven-wicket demolition of Zimbabwe last Saturday has put South Africa back on track following their shock defeat to Namibia. The Proteas will now look to build on that result and reclaim their status among the tournament favourites.

South Africa vs Zimbabwe Preview:
Much of South Africa's batting momentum has come from Dewald Brevis, whose successive knocks of 75 have made him one of the players to watch. His latest outing against Zimbabwe produced a stunning 32-ball assault, featuring six sixes, as the Proteas raced to their target of 145 with 38 balls to spare.
Zimbabwe arrive on the back of a dramatic five-run win over hosts Namibia. Reduced to 101 for six, they appeared to be in serious trouble before Ryan Burl and Brad Evans turned the innings around with a remarkable unbeaten stand of 94 for the seventh wicket, taking Sikandar Raza's men to 195 for six. Burl finished on 57 not out, while Evans contributed an unbeaten 37.
Zimbabwe survived a late scare as Evans claimed two wickets in a chaotic final over. Namibia almost pulled off the chase through aggressive half-centuries from Zane Green and Alexander Busing-Volschenk.
