Team Previews
Lions Preview
The Lions have been in excellent form, securing two consecutive wins in the tournament. In their last match, they defeated Titans by four runs (DLS), thanks to strong performances from Reeza Hendricks (94) and Zubayr Hamza (68). The lower order, featuring Connor Esterhuizen and Delano Potgieter, added crucial runs. The bowling attack, led by Codi Yusuf (4/53), Tshepo Moreki (2/64), and Delano Potgieter (2/63), has been effective. With a deep batting lineup and a versatile bowling attack, the Lions are one of the strongest teams in the tournament.
North West Preview
North West suffered a crushing defeat in their last match, bowled out for 145 against Western Province. Raynard van Tonder was the standout performer with 55 runs, but the rest of the batting lineup failed to contribute. The bowling attack, led by Kerwin Mungroo (2/22), showed some promise but lacked support. North West will need a significant improvement in their batting and bowling to challenge the in-form Lions.
