New Zealand were in for some early jolts during their chase of the 283-run target set by South Africa after they lose opening batsmen Martin Guptill and Jimmy Neesham in quick intervals, followed by Tom Latham falling prey to a clever delivery by South African captain AB de Villiers and Dale Steyn shattering Dean Brownlie’s off-stump during the second One-Day International (ODI) against New Zealand at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui.
South Africa reached a commanding total of 282 for the loss of nine wickets at the end of their quota of 50 overs during the second One-Day International (ODI) against New Zealand at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. Imran Tahir and Morne Morkel were unbeaten without scoring a run at the end of the South African innings. Hashim Amla top-scored for South Africa with a fluent 119 from 135 balls, while Corey Anderson emerged the pick of the bowlers with figures of two for 30.
New Zealand won the toss and elected to field first. The Kiwis made two changes in their playing XI, namely Tim Southee and Mitchell McClenaghan in place of Kyle Mills and Nathan McCullum. South Africa opted to replace Ryan McLaren with batsman David Miller. The Proteas thus had limited options in the bowling attack and had to utilise a part-time bowler.
