New Zealand Vs South Africa Live Cricket Score 5th T20I: Follow Scorecard And Match Action From Harare
The Tri-Nation T20I series continues to build excitement as New Zealand and South Africa meet once again, this time for the fifth match of the tournament at the Harare Sports Club. Both teams have already stamped their authority in this short series, securing their place in the final after Zimbabwe failed to register even a single win in their three matches. New Zealand remain unbeaten with two wins in two matches, while South Africa have notched up two victories from three games, where their only loss came against the Kiwis. Both sides are trying to fine-tune combinations and test their bench strength ahead of the T20 World Cup 2026. When these two sides last clashed earlier in the series, it was NZ who came out on top with a clinical 21-run win. Despite early setbacks, a masterclass innings from youngster Tim Robinson, who anchored the innings with an unbeaten 75, helped them post a competitive 173/5. Bevon Jacobs added the finishing punch with a quick-fire 44, lifting them from a mid-innings wobble. The Kiwi bowlers then took control, with Matt Henry and Jacob Duffy sharing six wickets between them, dismantling South Africa's middle and lower order to wrap them up for 152. That performance set the tone for New Zealand's dominance in the series. New Zealand have looked solid in all departments. Tim Robinson has been the breakout star, scoring 75 not out, while Devon Conway continues to provide composure at the top. Bevon Jacobs has added depth in the finishing stages, and Mitchell Santner's bowling changes have worked well. Duffy and Henry have been particularly impressive with the ball, combining for 9 wickets across two matches. Glenn Phillips being ruled out with a groin injury was a blow, but the squad still looks well-balanced and confident. Their consistency and ability to bounce back from pressure situations make them a formidable force going into this match and the eventual final. Meanwhile, South Africa have had flashes of brilliance but haven't yet strung together a complete performance against New Zealand. Reeza Hendricks and Lhuan-dre Pretorius have given them a decent start, and Brevis has been down the order, but their middle order needs to step up under pressure. Rassie van der Dussen has been among the runs and has managed to anchor the innings, while newcomer Rubin Hermann has played a couple of good knocks. On the bowling front, Lungi Ngidi and Kwena Maphaka have taken key wickets, while George Linde has shown promise with the ball. However, inconsistency remains a concern, especially with their batting approach against spin. They will be looking for redemption in this game before the big final. The Harare Sports Club surface has been a bit two-paced throughout the series. The pitch tends to be on the slower side, which means run-scoring isn't straightforward. Batters will need to apply themselves and show patience early on before playing their strokes. Spin is likely to play a big role again, with turn and grip expected for the slower bowlers. The weather forecast is partly sunny and dry, setting the stage for a full game. With both sides using this match as a dress rehearsal for the final, fans can expect another tactical and thrilling contest. Who will come out on top? Let's find out soon.

Proteas ready to set the record straight against New Zealand before tri-series final
South African all-rounder Corbin Bosch believes the Proteas will show greater ruthlessness in their second tri-series clash against New Zealand in Harare on Tuesday. Photo: Backpagepix Image: Backpagepix South Africa will get another crack at New Zealand when the two sides meet for the second time in the T20I tri-series at Harare Sports Club on Tuesday, starting at 1pm. Despite a 21-run defeat to the Black Caps in their first encounter, the Proteas have already secured a place in Saturday's final – also against the Black Caps – thanks to back-to-back wins over Zimbabwe. Tuesday's match now doubles up as both a tune-up for the final and a chance to right the wrongs from their earlier clash with the Kiwis. South Africa were in control early in that game, reducing New Zealand to 70/5, but a resilient 103-run partnership between Tim Robinson and Bevon Jacobs flipped the script. Their stand proved the decisive factor, leaving Rassie van der Dussen's side frustrated and ultimately short of the 174-run target. Video Player is loading.

Advertisement Next Stay Close ✕ The world Test champions bounced back in style as they beat Zimbabwe by seven wickets in their last outing on Sunday, setting themselves up perfectly to have a second bite at the Black Caps. All-rounder Corbin Bosch admitted the team fell short in the field during the first encounter but remained confident they will bring a sharper edge to the rematch. 'It's something we pride ourselves on — to be ruthless at all stages of the game,' Bosch said in the build-up. 'We took our foot off the paddle, especially in the field towards the back end of that game, and gave away some easy runs, along with a costly dropped chance that may have swung the game even more in our favour. 'But we've addressed it, and I think in our last game we were pretty ruthless with the ball—and we will need to do more of the same.' After a string of strong performances, George Linde is all business as he gears up for the final group stage clash of the Tri-Series against New Zealand tomorrow. 🇿🇦🔥#WozaNawe — Proteas Men (@ProteasMenCSA) July 21, 2025 The ongoing tour has also given head coach Shukri Conrad his first chance to hand extended opportunities to several fringe and promising young talents, allowing them to stake a claim for future selection. Bosch, along with emerging players like Rubin Hermann, Dewald Brevis, and Lhuandre Pretorius, has impressed so far and could play key roles in the remaining matches of the tournament. As one of the senior bowlers in the squad, Bosch believes the growing depth in South African cricket will only benefit the national team as they build towards the 2026 T20 World Cup, which will be hosted in Sri Lanka and India. 'Shuks has tried to find some good combinations. The goal at the end of the day is the T20 World Cup coming up next year,' Bosch continued. 'I think he is trying to fine-tune all the combinations. This is his first white-ball tour and series as a coach, and he is trying to find his feet in that sense. 'He is meticulously planning how he wants to go about his teams and how he plans to set up his sides moving forward — obviously looking ahead to next year's tournament. He is trying to find the best combination of batters and bowlers, and he is doing a good job so far. Everyone is buying into his plans, and we are in a good space.'

Wendy Ide's pick of other films: Friendship, Four Letters of Love, Gold Songs and Smurfs
Friendship (101 mins, 15) Directed by Andrew DeYoung; starring Tim Robinson, Paul Rudd, Kate Mara The minefield of male friendship has long been a rich source of inspiration for film-makers, to the extent that a whole new term – the bromance – gained currency in the early 00s to describe a certain kind of boys ' club buddy movie. I Love You, Man, starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel, was the classic example, but there are numerous others. Friendship, the squirm-inducing feature film debut from TV comedy director Andrew DeYoung (Dave, Our Flag Means Death) shares some DNA with the blustering broad comedy of the bromance, but it's a grotesquely deformed mutation of the genre. This is the kind of humour that is as likely to have you chewing your fists to bloody nubs from second-hand embarrassment as it is to generate laughter. Tim Robinson stars as Craig, an unpopular dork with a soul-crushing office job, a wife (Kate Mara) who is drifting into a relationship with another man and a wardrobe consisting of the shade of brown that you find when you unclog the kitchen sink. When Craig meets his new neighbour, local news weatherman Austin ( Rudd), it seems that he might finally have found a friend. Unfortunately, Craig's negligible impulse-control and non existent social skills inevitably make things weird. It's entertaining enough, in a The Cable Guy-meets-The Office, teeth-grindingly uncomfortable way. But Craig is an extreme and unlovely creation. Four Letters of Love (110 mins, 12A) Directed by Polly Steele; starring Pierce Brosnan, Helena Bonham Carter, Gabriel Byrne The country of Ireland is treated to another misrepresentation by a movie industry that seems compelled to filter all depictions through an emerald-green lens and a thick layer of whimsy. This adaptation of Niall Williams's best selling romantic novel features a bingo card full of Irish clich es, including meddlesome ghosts, rebellious convent schoolgirls and a character who plays his penny whistle so vigorously he lapses into a catatonic state. Feisty west coast islander Isabel (Ann Skelly) and forlorn, waxy-looking youth Nicholas (Fionn O'Shea) are destined to be together. But his unreliable, aspiring artist father (Pierce Brosnan) and her meddling mother (Helena Bonham Carter) keep getting in the way. There's also the small problem that Isabel is married to a feckless fellow she met while playing truant from her Catholic school. Fans of wide shots of vintage buses trundling through the most scenically blessed corners of the island may find much to admire, but this is a saccharine and insincere slog. Gold Songs (93 mins) Directed by Ico Costa; starring Domingos Marengula, Neusia Guiamba Love is a luxury for young people in the small, rural town in Mozambique where this slow-burning story starts its journey. And despite the heady attraction between them, Neusia (Neusia Guiamba) and Domingos (Domingos Marengula) find themselves priced out of the market for romance. She's still at school; he toils at a car wash for a boss who regularly fails to pay his workers. Both know that to build a future, they first need a financial foundation. So Domingos leaves, travelling to the north of the country to join his uncle hauling sacks of earth out of the precarious pits that pass for gold mines. The spark between Neusia and Domingos falters as time and distance take their toll. The melancholy and rather lovely second feature from Portuguese director Ico Costa (Alva) , the film's use of non-professional actors blurs the boundaries between fiction and real life – Gold Songs was developed with the participation of local people who shared their stories. The growing gap between the two characters is elegantly captured by the shooting styles of their diverging stories. Domingos, on his fruitless quest for a better life, is in constant motion, with the agitated camera trailing behind him like a stray dog. Back in the village, Neusia finds herself pregnant, her sadness and stillness captured by a subdued and watchful lens. Deep down, they both know that the further they grow apart, the less likely they are to find each other again. Smurfs (92 mins, U) Directed by Chris Miller, Matt Landon; starring Rihanna, James Corden, Nick Offerman Belgium's small, blue and inexplicably popular cultural gift to the world gets a reboot in this revamped Hollywood animation directed by Chris Miller (Puss in Boots). Smurfs has an all-new voice cast (Rihanna takes over the role of Smurfette from previous incumbents Demi Lovato and Katy Perry) and a tone that veers between knowing irony and wigged-out surrealism. But the excitable colour palette, roster of familiar evil-doers and rigidly enforced nominative determinism remains unchanged. This provides a premise: while Clumsy Smurf, Brainy Smurf, Hefty Smurf and the others have a unique defining characteristic, No Name Smurf (James Corden) has yet to find his 'thing'. A wish tacked on to an underwhelming musical number imbues him with magical powers, but no sooner has No Name learned to shoot fireworks from his fingers than he inadvertently summons the forces of evil in the form of malevolent wizard Razamel (JP Karliak). The picture borrows unashamedly and blatantly from Inside Out and the Spiderverse films, and the dimension-hopping plot line is tiresome. But the summer holidays are almost upon us and needs must, I suppose. Photographs by A24; Vertigo

Glenn Phillips ruled out of Zimbabwe T20I tri-series due to injury
New Zealand all-rounder Glenn Phillips suffered a right groin injury during the final of the Major League Cricket (MLC) 2025 and has been ruled out of the ongoing T20I tri-series in Zimbabwe, along with South Africa and the hosts. The Kiwi player was monitored upon his arrival in Zimbabwe and was advised to undergo a number of weeks of rehabilitation, as per the ICC official website. Blackcaps right-hand batter Tim Robinson, who was already among the players who had joined the Washington Freedom squad as a cover for the MLC final, will continue to stay on with the side for the remainder of the T20I tri-series. The likes of Michael Bracewell, Phillips, Mark Chapman and Rachin Ravindra were featuring in the MLC Final, and hence a number of replacements had been brought in. Phillips was also a part of the Test squad, and his replacement in the squad would be named in due course. Black Caps head coach Rob Walters felt for Phillips. "It's obviously disappointing to lose someone of Glenn's calibre. Much like Finn (Allen), we really feel for Glenn and that he misses out on this series. We know he was eager to get out on the field for the Black Caps, and unfortunately, he won't be able to do that for this series. We know he'll work hard to get himself back onto the park, and I look forward to when that happens," Rob Key said as quoted by ICC. Phillips will return to New Zealand along with Jimmy Neesham and Mitch Hay, both of whom were in Zimbabwe as cover for players who featured in the MLC Final. New Zealand featured in their opening fixture of the tournament against South Africa, and won by 21 runs courtesy of Tim Robinson's 75* and Jacob Duffy and Matt Henry's three-wicket hauls.
