Lions Form

The Lions defeated the Dolphins by eight runs in a high-scoring Pro20 Cup Pool A match at Kingsmead in Durban.

The Lions won the toss and chose to bat. Zubayr Hamza set a fast pace with 66 off 38 balls, while Reeza Hendricks contributed a solid 50 off 35. Connor Esterhuizen added a quick-fire unbeaten 38 off just 13 deliveries at the end to push the total to 202/4 in their 20 overs.

Tight bowling late in the innings from Wiaan Mulder (2/31) and Codi Yusuf (2/38) restricted the Dolphins to 194/6, sealing the narrow win for the Lions.
