SOUTH Africa batsman Faf du Plessis says his side will not make life easy for Zimbabwe in their ODI triangular showdown at Harare Sports Club tomorrow.
Du Plessis starred with the bat, but could not stop his side from crashing to a big defeat at the hands of Australia.“Zimbabwe is a very strong team and they play well, especially under these conditions, they prepare the wicket that suits their play so we expecting a slow turn on Thursday.
“We respect them and we need to beat them so I don’t think we will rest any players for that one,” said du Plessis.

His century yesterday was his second in this triangular.

“It’s my job to score 100s though it’s always so much more sweeter when you get your team across the line, to be honest with you even as I was scoring those runs there’s a point I felt we were too far away as we lost too many wickets and we were never quite close enough,” said du Plessis.
