TEAMS PREVIEW
North West Preview
North West have been the best team in the CSA T20 Challenge 2024 so far. They started the season with four consecutive wins, followed by a defeat against the Warriors and an abandoned game against the Titans. While they have already secured a spot in the top two, a win here will confirm their spot as the table-toppers going into the playoffs.
Among North West's four wins, the top win was against the Dolphins by 43 runs. Batting first, they managed 136 runs for 7 wickets in tricky conditions at Durban. Captain Wihan Lubbe top-scored with 49 runs off just 29 balls, 4 fours, and 2 sixes.
In defence, North West had the Dolphins reduced to 14 for 4 wickets in the 3rd over. Once they broke the partnership of Jason Smith and Bradley Porteous in the 11th over, it did not last long for North West to close the Dolphin’s innings for just 93 runs. Bamanye Xenxe was the peak of the bowlers with 4 wickets for 25 runs in 4 overs.
Janneman Malan (233 Runs) and Wihan Lubbe (195 runs) are the top batters for North West this season. Kerwin Mungroo is North West’s top wicket-taker with 9 wickets at 16.66 and an economy of 7.5 rpo. It’s an excellent chance for North West to get a victory before the playoffs.
Key players: Janneman Malan, Wihan Lubbe, Kerwin Mungroo
North West Predicted Playing XI:
Ludwich Schuld, Janneman Malan, Wihan Lubbe (c), Lesiba Ngoepe, Meeka eel Prince (wk), Migael Pretorius, Taheer Isaacs, Caleb Seleka, Kerwin Mungroo, Achille Cloete, Gideon Peters

Lions Preview
The Lions have had an equally good season as the North West. With a game left in the league stage, they are currently at second spot with 4 wins and 2 losses. Unlike North West, the Lions started the season with a loss against the Titans, but they went on to get 4 consecutive wins against the Warriors, Dolphins, Knights, and Bolands.
The Lions' huge 117-run loss in the first game meant they could never recover the NRR despite getting some big wins against the Warriors (by 62 runs) and Knights ( by 47 Runs). Their NRR currently stands at 0.014. A loss in this game would give the Titans a chance to replace them at the second spot; otherwise, the Lions are guaranteed a top-two finish.
The Lions had a great chance in the last game against Western Province to attain the top spot, but they lost the game by 4 wickets. Batting first, the Lions scored 145 for 7 wickets in 20 overs. Barring Wicketkeeper Wandile Makwetu (41 runs) and Rassie van der Dussen (43 runs), no other batter could make significant contributions. In defence, the Lions did get two quick wickets but could not stop Edward Moore from making 87 runs and taking Western Province home with 3 balls to spare.
Junaid Dawood is the top wicket-taker of the tournament with 13 wickets, followed by Maphaka with 6 wickets. In batting, Wandile Makwetu is doing well for the Lions. This is a crucial game for the Lions to secure the top finish in the league stage.
Key players: Reeza Hendricks, Wandile Makwetu, Junaid Dawood, Kwena Maphaka
Lions Predicted Playing XI:
Reeza Hendricks, Wandile Makwetu (wk), Rassie van der Dussen, Connor Esterhuizen, Delano Potgieter, Mitchell Van Buuren, Evan Jones, Bjorn Fortuin (c), Codi Yusuf, Nqaba Peter, Kwena Maphaka

NW vs LIO
Winning Prediction
It’s a game between the equals. North West do have fewer defeats and higher points compared to the Lions, but there isn’t much difference between the two teams otherwise. North West’s batting does look more potent, while the Lions' bowling looks more settled. North West are under no pressure here, for they would finish in the top two irrespective of the result, which might work in their favour.
We predict that North West will defeat the Lions.
