Preview

After finishing in the top of the points table at the end of the league stage, Bjorn Fortuin-led Lions (LIO) will face Titans (TIT) in the first qualifier of the ongoing CSA T20 Challenge 2024. Johannesburg’s Wanderers Stadium will host this fixture on October 22 at 9:30 PM (IST). To secure a direct spot in the final, both teams will be eyeing winning this game to avoid the ‘2nd qualifier’ knife.
