Lions Team News & Playing 11
LIONS Team News
After getting off to a flying start in the competition with wins over Boland and North West, Lions suffered their first defeat of the tournament against Dolphins in Match 10. A victory in this game will see Lions operating near the top of the table.
LIONS Team Batting
With a team boasting some of the biggest names and most talented batters in South African cricket, Lions will have been very disappointed to post only 155/5 in their last match. Temba Bavuma hit an unbeaten half-century against Dolphins and is an excellent white ball batter.
LIONS Team Bowling
Delano Potgieter was unfortunate to end up on the losing side in their last match after taking three wickets against Dolphins and we expect him alongside Codi Yusuf to be the key bowling threats for Lions in this match against Titans on Friday.
LIONS Team Form
Lions were looking for three wins in a row before losing by 4 wickets to Dolphins in Match 10.
Lions Predicted Playing 11
Rassie van der Dussen, Ryan Rickleton (wk), Reeza Hendricks, Temba Bavuma, Wiaan Mulder, Mitchell Van Buuren, Delano Potgieter, Bjorn Fortuin (c), Codi Yusuf, Nqabayomzi Peter, Lutho Sipamla
Titans Team News & Playing 11
TIT Team News
A 2 run defeat against Warriors saw Titans lose for the first time in the tournament in Match 11 on Thursday and they will be looking to return to winning ways at the earliest opportunity in this game. Titans have a team full of talent with bat and ball.
TIT Team Batting
Three of the top five for Titans are big players at the highest level on the T20 circuit and we expect opener Dewald Brevis, skipper Aiden Markram and keeper-batter Heinrich Klaasen to be key in this match. Dayyan Galiem comes into this match after hitting 32 runs from 12 balls in the last fixture.
TIT Team Bowling
Aaron Phangiso and Tabraiz Shamsi were the only two bowlers in the attack to go wicketless in the defeat against Warriors with the other five bowlers used picking up a wicket each. Shamsi is a fine spinner though and it would be no surprise to see him back dismissing batters in this game.
TIT Team Form
Titans won their first two games before a narrow defeat in their last fixture.
Titans Predicted Playing 11
Sibonelo Makhanya, Dewald Brevis, Rivaldo Moonsamy, Aiden Markram (c), Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Dayyaan Galiem, Corbin Bosch, Aaron Phangiso, Junior Dala, Lizaad Williams, Tabraiz Shamsi
