The highly anticipated final Test of the two-match series between New Zealand and South Africa will take place at the Seddon Park in Hamilton, commencing on Tuesday (February 13). With the hosts currently holding a commanding 1-0 lead after a dominant performance in the first Test at the Bay Oval, where they clinched victory by a resounding 281 runs margin, New Zealand will be eyeing a series whitewash of the visitors on their home soil.

On the flip side, the relatively inexperienced South African squad, captained by Neil Brand for the series, faces a formidable challenge to bounce back. Having been thoroughly outplayed in the opening encounter, the Proteas will be determined to bring their best to level the series and salvage pride.
