KwaZulu-Natal Inland Team News & Playing 11
KZNIN Team News
Friday’s game against fellow strugglers Boland saw KZN-Inland suffer their sixth defeat of the season and they have now swapped places with Boland and find themselves bottom of the table ahead of this match. However, their opponents in this game are only two places above Boland in the table.
KZNIN Team Batting
We have seen plenty of poor performances with the bat and ball from KZN-Inland in this tournament but we saw another very bad batting display on Friday as they were dismissed for 94 with the runs taking 20 overs to accumulate. Quicker runs, irrespective of losing wickets will be required to be competitive in this match.
KZNIN Team Bowling
Although the bowling unit had a target of 95 to defend against Boland, they actually had a good go of it and reduced their opponents to 3/2 after two overs. The opening bowling pair of Keith Dudgeon and Mbulelo Budaza will be key again in this clash.
KZNIN Team Form
KZN-Inland have not won any of their last four games in the 2024 CSA T20 Challenge.

Titans Team News & Playing 11
TIT Team News
Although they are only in fifth place in the table, Titans will come into this match full of confidence after becoming the first team to beat top of the table Warriors in the tournament. Aaron Phangiso’s side will be raring to go once more after their 12 run win on Friday.
TIT Team Batting
With both openers falling for single figure scores against Warriors, Titans had their number three and number four batters, Rivaldo Moonsamy and Sibonelo Makhanya to thank for helping the side post a competitive total. The top order will need to be wary of KZN-Inland’s strong bowling attack in this match.
TIT Team Bowling
The return of Corbin Bosch to the bowling attack made a big difference for Titans in the last game and he will be looking to back up his brilliant figures of 3/22 in this fixture. Pacer Lizaad Williams also looked back to his best in that victory.
TIT Team Form
Titans returned to winning ways on Friday with only their third victory of the campaign.
Titans Predicted Playing 11
Lhuan-dre Pretorius (wk), Joshua van Heerden, Rivaldo Moonsamy, Sibonelo Makhanya, Neil Brand, Dayyaan Galiem, Corbin Bosch, Aaron Phangiso (c), Lungi Ngidi, Lizaad Williams, Tabraiz Shamsi
🏆 KwaZulu-Natal Inland vs Titans Prediction
After their impressive and surprising win over Warriors in their last game, the pressure will be on Titans to follow up that win with another and all the expectation will be on them to do so. KZN-Inland’s batting has not been to a high enough level and we expect it to fail again. We are backing Titans to win.
