Follow UsAfter a comprehensive nine-wicket victory in the first in Bulawayo, New Zealand will be hoping for a neat 2-0 whitewash as they take on Zimbabwe in the second Test later today.
The Kiwis will once again be weakened with skipper Tom Latham confirmed to miss this game with injury as well, but Zimbabwe, on the other hand, will likely be boosted by the return of Brendan Taylor, who is all set to play his first international match in three years.
He’s back from his ban, fit as ever, and all eyes are set to be on him ahead of the second Test. The two teams will once again clash at the Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo.
