“To suck up that and get 300 in the first game was really good”. The New Zealand bowlers will be eager to come up with a repeat performance in the third ODI.

Zimbabwe are aware there is a rare opportunity to force a series win against a test side other than Bangladesh. “The fielding was a lot better today and was close to where we usually are”.

Black Caps batsman Ross Taylor will miss tonight’s ODI series decider against Zimbabwe and remainder of the tour to South Africa due to injury. The match is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. local time at Harare Sports Club in Harare, Zimbabwe – 3 a.m. United States Eastern Time, midnight Pacific – on Friday, August 7.

His absence means New Zealand will head to South Africa next week for two Twenty20s and three ODIs without five first choice players: Taylor, Brendon McCullum, Tim Southee (both rested) and Trent Boult and Corey Anderson, who are both recovering from back injuries.
