Prosper Utseya became just the second Zimbabwean to take a hat-trick in a one-day international, but South Africa still pulled off a 61-run victory in Friday's triangular series clash in Harare.
Utseya sparked a remarkable collapse as he claimed the wickets of Quinton de Kock, Rilee Rossouw and David Miller before finishing with career-best figures of 5 for 36, but a last-wicket partnership of 36 carried South Africa to a total of 231 all out.
That proved ample when Ryan McLaren and Dale Steyn took three wickets apiece to bowl Zimbabwe out for 170 in 38.3 overs.
