New Zealand (NZ) will look to seal the series when they face South Africa (SA) in the fourth T20I at Sky Stadium, Wellington, on Sunday, March 22.

The Kiwis have taken a 2-1 lead in the five-match series after wins in the second and third T20Is. They defeated South Africa by 68 runs in Hamilton and eight wickets in Auckland. This was after the Proteas won the first T20I in Mount Maunganui by seven wickets.

The Black Caps have looked more skillful, especially with the ball. The inexperienced South African side has crumbled under pressure. However, with their backs against the wall, expect the team from the Rainbow Nation to go for the jugular.
