Walking in with Zimbabwe under pressure, Raza launched a fearless counterattack, reaching the landmark with a flurry of towering sixes and boundaries.
He eventually scored 66 off just 16 deliveries, striking 9 sixes and 3 fours at an astonishing strike rate of 412.50. Although Zimbabwe fell 40 runs short of South Africa’s massive total, Raza’s explosive innings stood out as one of the finest individual performances of the match and gave the visitors hope for the remainder of the series.
