McCullum (64) and Guptill (67) put on 120 as the tourists piled up 187 for three after being sent in to bat in a rain-affected 18 overs a side match.

Zimbabwe made a spirited reply but were all out for 154 to give the Kiwis a 34-run win (D/L). Chamu Chibhabha hit 65 off 39 balls for the hosts and shared a 60-run stand with Elton Chigumbura until the latter chipped back a return catch to Nathan McCullum in the tenth over.

McCullum dismissed Charles Coventry in similar fashion two balls later.
