Kane Williamson trumped South African opener Matthew Breetzke’s record-breaking debut ODI hundred and led New Zealand to the tri-nation series final with a six-wicket win on Monday. Williamson followed his Saturday’s half century against Pakistan with an unbeaten 133 off 113 balls -- his first ODI century since 2019 World Cup – and cruised New Zealand to 308-4 for its second successive win.

After thrashing Pakistan, New Zealand will look to continue the momentum and secure another win to make it to the final of the tri-series. The Proteas are without a lot of big names, but will hope to make a mark in Lahore.
