Warriors Team News & Playing 11
Skipper JJ Smuts and Colin Ackermann will be the key men for the Warriors when it comes to batting. Christiaan Jonker has had a good hit already this season and he will be the team's biggest hope in the middle order. Andrew Birch is a quality bowler and has an impressive record in first-class cricket. The pacer will be the team's best bet with the ball while Kelly Smuts and Solo Nqweni are the others to watch out for.

Lions Team News & Playing 11
Reeza Hendricks is currently leading the runs-charts and is averaging over 200. His opening partner Rassie van der Dussen has also been amongst the runs and it will be crucial for the Lions that these two go on to score the big runs in this match. Pace bowling is going to rely largely on Willem Mulder and Kagiso Rabada who will look to pick up the early wickets. Aaron Phangiso has also been impressive and the skipper will be the main man in the spin department.

Warriors vs Lions Prediction
The Warriors do have an upper hand when it comes to head-to-head count. Out of the 22 matches played between these two teams in the past, 13 have been won by the Warriors and 8 by the Lions with the remaining one match having resulted in a tie. But having said that, the Lions are performing far better this year than the Warriors who are struggling at the moment and are lying in the bottom half of the points table. The Lions are also a little stronger on paper and so we predict them to win this game.
Final Verdict: Back the Lions to beat the Warriors in the 14th match of the Ram Slam T20 Challenge 2017.
