The two teams met in the first match of the tournament and will now face in the final as well. Titans were the best team of the league stage and won 6 of the 7 games they played. They defeated the Knights in the semis to book a berth in the final.
Meanwhile, Dolphins finished the league stage second on the points table with four wins and two losses in seven games. They picked up a 20-run win over Rocks in the semi-final to book a berth in the final. In the first match, the Titans defeated Dolphins by 34 runs so they will be high on confidence.
It should be a good wicket to bat on. The ground has seen some big runs being scored in the tournament and given the quality of batters on both sides, the final should be a high scoring one. However, the overcast conditions may allow the bowlers, especially the pacers, to dictate terms.
There is 70 per cent chance of rain on the match day. The overcast conditions will allow the fast bowlers to be in the game as well.

Roelofsen has been brilliant for Dolphins in the tournament. He is the leading run-scorer of the tournament with 333 runs in 8 matches at an average of over 50. He has hot 30 fours and 10 sixes in the tournament.
Baby AB as they call him has been brilliant. Brevis has scored 325 runs in 8 matches in the tournament and is the league’s second-highest run scorer. Against Knights, Brevis scored a mammoth 162 of just 57 balls, showing the class he possesses.
JJ Smuts is a good all-rounder to have in the team. He is a solid batter and a very good bowler. He has taken 9 wickets in 8 matches of the tournament so far.
The spinner is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament for Titans with 12 wickets in 8 games. Not only he has taken wickets but has also been very economical
We feel Junior Dala can be a game-changer for the Titans in the final. He can bowl fast and has the ability to move the ball both ways. He is the second-highest wicket-taker for Titans with 10 wickets in 8 games.
