New Zealand vs Zimbabwe Score, Match 6 of Twenty20 Tri-Series in Zimbabwe 2025

OUT! Run Out. Zak Foulkes to Tinotenda Maposa. Leg cutter back of a length, down leg side on the back foot slog sweeping, hit pad to leg slip, direct hit by Seifert. That's it. A comfortable victory for New Zealand. They seemed to have controlled the game well, with the bowlers stepping up when needed. Zimbabwe's chase never really took off, and despite Tony Munyonga's valiant 40, the rest of the batting lineup crumbled under the pressure. Ish Sodhi's four-wicket haul was crucial in breaking the back of Zimbabwe's resistance, and his performance really swung the game in New Zealand's favour. It looks like the New Zealand bowlers executed their plans perfectly, keeping Zimbabwe on the back foot throughout the chase. Ish Sodhi is the Player of the Match.
