Kabwe Stars are favourites to win
The second weekend of the Zambia Cricket League T10 tournament starts with Kitwe Kings taking on Kabwe Stars. The match takes place on July 11 at the Lotus Sports Club Ground, Lusaka, and the match gets underway at 08:30 local time.
The two teams have already met once, last Sunday, when Godfrey Kandela helped Kabwe Stars to 96/4 and a six-wicket win. Captain Himal Patel had earlier top-scored for the Kings with 48* from 30 balls.
Both teams won their final matches, however, meaning they go into this game with a record of played four, won two and lost two each. Kitwe Kings chased 78 to beat Ndola Blitz by ten wickets in their last game and Kabwe Stars bowled well in a low-scoring five-wicket win against Lusaka Stars.

Sanjay Patel appears to be out of favour, with the Kings sticking with a fairly consistent line-up. Azhar Haveliwala looks set to keep his place, despite not bowling last time out.
Kitwe Kings started with a six-run win against Lusaka Heats but then lost to both Ndola Blitz and Kabwe Stars in their next two games. They failed to defend 95/4, after Himal Patel’s 48*, when these teams last met. However, they bounced back against the Blitz as they chased 78 in a ten-wicket win last time out – Azhar Bangliwala scoring 47* of them.

Isaac Mwaba recovered from retiring hurt in Kabwe Stars’ second game to play on the second day too. It was a boost with the bat and Kabwe Stars could be unchanged again.
Kabwe Stars lost to both Ndola Blitz and Lusaka Heats on the first day but bounced back on day two. They won both matches, against Kitwe Kings as they chased 96 to win by six wickets, and against Lusaka, who they restricted to 63/8 in their way to a five-wicket win.
