Parke Gerald Zinzan "Zin" Harris (18 July 1927 – 1 December 1991) was a New Zealand cricketer who played in nine Test matches between 1955 and 1965.
Harris was a member of the New Zealand team that toured South Africa in 1961–62 and drew the series two-all. He was New Zealand's top scorer, with 101 and 30, in the Third Test at Cape Town, which was New Zealand's first overseas Test victory.[1][2]
Harris had two sons who played first-class cricket: Chris Harris, who went on to represent New Zealand, and Ben Harris who played for Canterbury and Otago. The unusual name of Zinzan – thought to be of Indian origin – is shared by several members of the Harris and related families: both Chris and Ben Harris have Zinzan as a middle name.
