After a forgettable 3-match series against South Africa, in which they suffered a whitewash, Zimbabwe will be hoping to put on an improved performance when they take on Australia in the opening match of the tri-series that starts on 25th August in Harare.

Taylor has amassed six hundreds for Zimbabwe in ODIs.

AB de Villiers is known for many things, but almost never for misjudging a run. But there is always a first time for everything, even if it is letting a ball go to a wicket-keeper who is standing right up to the stumps, and shockingly contrive to steal a single.

South Africa have already won the ODI series by winning the first two games.

Hashim Amla will return for the tri-series that also involves hosts, Zimbabwe and Australia.

Zimbabwe did showcase that tunnel-visioned aim to fight it out in the one-off Test match played at Harare. So, one can expect them to give the much-fancied South African setup a run for their money.

There won't be any replacement for the injured seamer, Hendricks.
