Preview:
The ongoing One Day series against the Emerging team from South Africa has been a nightmare for Zimbabwe Women. While they were always the underdogs in this series, their fans would have at least hoped for a fight.
But that was nowhere to be seen as they have lost all of the four games. While this game will be all about mere formality, Zimbabwe will try all they can to win this match, so as to avoid an embarrassing whitewash.
