Lions to win
Lions will take on Dolphins at Boland Park in the 2024 CSA T20 Challenge Final. This match gets underway at 18:00 local time on Sunday, 28th April, 2024.
We have seen plenty of even contests between bat and ball at Boland Park during this year’s T20 Challenge Final and we expect the same in this match. A par score will be no higher than 175 for the side batting first.

The table-topping Lions got back to winning ways with an 8 wicket victory over Titans in the semi-final after losing their final group stage match. They will be confident of victory over Dolphins although they have already lost once to them in this year’s tournament.
Needing to hit 134 runs from 18 overs in the semi-final, Lions knew they would need one of their top batters to produce a big knock and it was Rassie van der Dussen who did so on Wednesday. He hit 73 not out from 45 balls and along with Temba Bavuma, Reeza Hendricks and Ryan Rickelton will be the key batters in this game.
Lions have a very strong bowling attack with young spinner Nqabayomzi Peter catching the eye and generating plenty of coverage across the globe with his performances. In this final, we can expect Codi Yusuf and Lutho Sipamla to take the new ball.
Lions have lost only one of their last eight matches and that was a very narrow 2 wicket defeat.

It was a comfortable semi-final victory for Dolphins on Thursday as they swept aside Warriors to win by 5 wickets with 12 balls remaining. Although they were beaten by Lions in their last head to head, they did beat them by 4 wickets earlier in this year’s competition.
Dolphins got over the finish line with two overs to spare against Warriors and their opener Khaya Zondo set the pace at the top of the order with 49 runs from 23 balls. Warriors struggled to work out how to dismiss him, and he was eventually out run-out, so he will bring plenty of confidence into this final.
Andile Phehlukwayo was the only bowler for Dolphins to concede runs at an economy rate over 11 in the semi-final but he is an experienced performer and can be relied upon to perform in this match. Eathan Bosch comes into the game in fine form and will open the bowling.
Dolphins come into this final in Boland targeting their sixth successive victory of the competition.

This has been an excellent CSA T20 Challenge and there is no doubt that Lions and Dolphins have been the two strongest sides and fully deserve to be contesting the final. We expect Dolphins, who have been in strong form, to put up a good showing, but we are backing Lions to win this game and be crowned champions.
