Boland Team News & Playing 11
BOL Team News
It was another heavy defeat for Boland in their last game as they were thrashed by 9 wickets with 16 balls remaining against Lions on Sunday. They have lost six of their seven games and sit bottom of the table ahead of this clash with KwaZulu-Natal Inland.
BOL Team Batting
With opener Keegan Petersen out of form, we could see a switch around in the batting order for Boland in this game. Only Adrian du Toit, Michael Copeland and Ferisco Adams made double-figure scores for Boland in their last match and confidence is low in the side.
BOL Team Bowling
Experienced leg-spinner Shaun von Berg took Boland’s only wicket against Lions but in truth the entire bowling unit were disappointing in that match. Slow left-arm orthodox bowler du Toit may get more overs in this game after conceding just eight runs from two overs in the last fixture.
BOL Team Form
Boland got their first win of the tournament in Match 23 but were back to losing ways in Match 28 against Lions.

KZNIN Team News
After their last game was abandoned without a ball being bowled against North West in Match 32, KwaZulu-Natal Inland come into this match in seventh place with seven points. Boland are the only side below them in the table so they will begin this fixture as favourites.
KZNIN Team Batting
Keith Dudgeon and Kagiso Rapulana have been KwaZulu-Natal Inland’s most successful batters across the tournament so far and we expect them to have key roles in this game. Cameron Delport has disappointed at the top of the order and may drop into the middle-order for this match.
KZNIN Team Bowling
KwaZulu-Natal Inland’s bowlers will have appreciated their rest in the last game and should be fresh for this clash on Friday. Mbulelo Budaza will be keen to get the ball into his hand again due to his strike-rate of 12 across this year’s CSA T20 Challenge.

KwaZulu-Natal Inland have won one match during this campaign and been well beaten in the other completed games.

🏆 Boland vs KwaZulu-Natal Inland Prediction
With the other six teams in this CSA T20 Challenge having all won at least two games, this match sees the only two sides with just one victory going head to head. Whoever loses this match will be bottom of the table and our prediction is that will be Boland. KwaZulu-Natal Inland have strong bowlers who should be able to deliver on this pitch and we are backing them to win.
