TEAMS PREVIEW
Warriors Preview
The Warriors are coming into this match with a comprehensive 109-win over the Titans at St George's Park earlier this week. After being asked to bat first, the Warriors posted 316-7 on the board, then bowled the opposition out for just 207.
Tristan Stubbs was the hero of the match for the Titans, with a sublime 159 off just 117 balls. Stubbs shared an incredible 220-run sixth-wicket partnership with Patrick Kruger (109) after their team had been reduced to 51-5 at one stage.
Kruger now has two centuries in as many games and is currently the leading run-getter of the season with 244 runs at a remarkable strike rate of 124.

Fast bowler Renaldo Meyer has raced up the bowling charts for the Titans after his stunning 4-31 in the last game against the Titans. Beyers Swanepoel is another bowler to watch out for. He was their leading wicket-taker last season and has started this one with a bang, taking 4 wickets already at an average of 23.25.

KwaZulu-Natal Inland (AET Tuskers) Preview
After ing a comprehensive 9-wciket win in their season opener against the Lions, KwaZulu-Natal Inland have suffered three defeats on the trot, the last of which came against Boland. Chasing a target of 306 at Boland Park, KwaZulu-Natal were bowled out for only 223, with Tian Koekemoer (84) being the lone fighter.
KwaZulu-Natal have been let down by their batting this year and really need their batters to step up if they hope to make any sort of comeback this season. Koekemoer, with 193 runs in 4 innings at an average of 64.33, has been their most consistent performer. Apart from him, there is only opener Kagiso Rapulana (104 runs in 4 innings at 52), who has shown some grit.
The likes of Tian Koekemoer, Malcolm Nofal, and captain Michael Erlank really need to put their hands up.
Their bowlers have done a better job, with left-arm fast bowler Mbulelo Budaza (12 wickets in 4 matches at an average of 13.16) leading the way. Left-arm spinner Malcolm Nofal (6 wickets in 4 innings) and off-spinner Michael Erlank (5 wickets in 4 innings) are the other two bowlers in the squad who have stood out.
KwaZulu-Natal Inland (AET Tuskers) Predicted Playing XI:
Michael Erlank (c), Kyle Nipper, Dilivio Ridgaard (wk), Kagiso Rapulana, Pite van Biljon, Malcolm Nofal, Tian Koekemoer, Alindile Mhletywa, Thando Ntini, Mbulelo Budaza, Cameron Delport

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The pitch at St. George's Park in Gqeberha is a good T20 deck overall, with enough in it for the fast bowlers. The ball will come on fast to the bat at a nice height, which the batters will enjoy. However, seamers will find consistent bounce and movement off the surface. The ones who maintain their lines and lengths will surely trouble the batters.
The weather in Gqeberha is expected to be cloudy for most of the match. It might rain in the morning, but we should get a full game.
WAR vs KZNIN Pitch Report
Last year, St George's Park proved to be a high-scoring venue in the CSA Provincial One-Day Challenge Division One, with three totals of over 300 being scored here in as many games. This year too, in the only game played here, the Warriors managed to post a formidable 316-7 on the board. Thus, the team batting first in this match should look to target a score of around 290-310 runs.
Toss: To Bowl
Out of the 42 T20 domestic matches played at St George's Park in Gqeberha, 21 have been won by the team batting second, while 19 have been won by the team batting first. With the weather likely to be cloudy for this game, the team winning the toss will likely choose to bowl first to utilize the overhead conditions and take early wickets.
WAR vs KZNIN
Winning Prediction
The Warriors will be starting this game as the favorites. They are the in-form side and are coming into this match on the back of a huge win. On the other hand, KwaZulu-Natal Inland have lost three games in a row. Their confidence must be low, and it will require a special team effort from them to run the Warriors close. KwaZulu-Natal’s bowling is their biggest strength, and if they can knock over the Warriors’ batting unit, they will be in with a chance. They should particularly target their underperforming top-order. That said, the Warriors bat deep, and their best batter this year has been batting at No. 7. Their bowling attack, too, is pretty balanced. Therefore, we feel that the Warriors are likely to dominate this contest.
We are backing the Warriors as the winners of this match.
