Team Previews
Kwazulu-Natal Inland Preview
Kwazulu-Natal Inland had a tough season in 2023 but started well in Division 2 with a win in their opening game. In their first match, they scored 256/6 against Mpumalanga, with Jack Lees (63) and Sean Gilson (51) leading the charge. Their bowlers, especially Ziyaad Abrahams (3/20), were exceptional, bundling out Mpumalanga for 161. However, they need to improve their ability to close out games, as the lower-order partnerships cost them extra runs. Against a strong Eastern Storm side, they will need a collective effort to secure a win.
Eastern Storm Preview
Eastern Storm narrowly missed the finals last season but have started strongly this year. In their opening game, they defeated defending champions South Africa Emerging Players by 60 runs (DLS). Their top order, featuring Kabelo Sekhukhune, Christopher Britz, and Danie Rossouw, delivered half-centuries, while Mekyle Pillay and Shaveer Khan starred with the ball. With a strong head-to-head record against Kwazulu-Natal Inland (3 wins in last 5 matches), Eastern Storm are favorites to secure their second win of the season.
