Preview

CSA T20 Challenge 2024 has been a tournament filled with bumpy rides for most of the teams. The game on Friday will witness the Tuskers taking on the Warriors with both sides occupying different ends of the table.

Warriors (WAR) are top of the table having won eighy of the nine games they have played so far. It has been a flawless tournament so far for the Warriors as their batting has been top notch. The bowling too despite missing some key stars has held up its own and done well.

KwaZulu Natal (TUS) are bottom of the table with just one win so far this year. Some of the players are finally coming to form, as seen in their last game. While the qualification for the final phase of the tournament is unlikely, the Tuskers will hope to play party poopers for other sides.

C

Cameron Delport KNI | BAT

The veteran all-rounder finally found his form and scored an amazing 83 not out. This helped his team win the game as the batting Cameron Delport gave the Tuskers the much needed aggression at the top of the order.

7.5
C

Beyers Swanepoel WAR | BOWL

This yearā€™s tournament has been a breakout for Swanpoel. The young pacer did well to pick up a fifer and grab the attention of the selectors in South Africa. Swanepoel isnā€™t just an amazing talent with the ball but is also more than capable with the bat.

6

Kurtlyn Mannikam KNI | BOWL

Unfancied and unknown off-spinner Mannikam was thw star with the ball for the Tuskers. The 28-year-old picked 3 wickets for 28 runs from 4 overs to dent the much talked about Titans batting unit.

8

Jordan Hermann WAR | BAT

Much of the Warriors success this year is due to the consistent showing by their batters. Jordan Hermann has been one of the most consistent batters this year and his ability to pace his innings has been one of the most talked about features.

8

Keith Dudgeon KNI | ALL

Despite the bad form shown by the Tuskers this year, Keith Dudgeon has been showing tremendous growth as a cricketer. The all-rounder has managed to score timely runs and pick crucial wickets to keep his side interested in many of the contests.

9

Matthew Breetzke WAR | WK

Warriors skipper has continued to give his team blazing starts with the bat. Matthew Breetzke has been scoring runs at a very quick pace to put the pressure on the other teams. If Warriors have to win the tournament the form of their skipper is going to be the key.

8.5

Michael Erlank

KNI | BAT

The Tuskers have seen their captain Michal Erlank lose his form to put his team under huge pressure. The veteran player is a huge cog in the wheel for the Tuskers team in the middle-order and his struggles have impacted the team greatly.

7.5

Jiveshan Pillay

WAR | BAT

Warriors will be worried with the form of Jiveshan Pillay who has had an inconsistent run of form with the bat. The right-handed batter who is known to be an exciting talent has found form deserting him at the top of the order. This could special trouble for him if his form doesnā€™t improve the Warriors may have to look for other options.
