South Africa vs New Zealand Key Players
David Miller
David Miller remains from 2015 and he knows well how the pain of defeat in knockouts are. He has seen his side lose a lot of knockouts in the interim as well and will be eager to ensure he gets through this one successfully.
Glenn Phillips
Glenn Phillips has been rocking it in the field. With the bat too he is getting the runs at a quick pace but his fielding has given a lot of applause.
SA vs NZ Match Tips
Both teams are pretty well balanced and its now a matter of who makes fewer mistakes. New Zealand are a touch more composed and could back themselves in this aspect.
