Current Form Mpumalanga:

Batting first, Mpumalanga lost Alexander Kok early on in the innings. Post his dismissal, Rubin Hermann and Brian Koto tried to revive the proceedings with a partnership of 41 runs. Once this partnership was broken, Mpumalanga middle order did not show any resistance to the bowlers and gifted their wickets.

Chasing 112, Cameron Delport provided his team a charismatic start and smashed 20 runs off the first over. He set the tone for the chase with his aggression in the first over.

Current Form Titans:
Titans lost their last match to Knights by 6 wickets.
Batting first, Titans got off to a very slow start as Dean Elgar along with Neil Brand were busy taking singles and doubles rather than looking for boundaries in the powerplay. The run rate pressure resulted in quick wickets. At one point, Titans were 103 for 5 in 17 overs. In the last 3 overs, Sibonelo Makhanya played an important role in taking the score past 140 to 143 for 8 in 20 overs. For Knights, Migael Pretorius picked up 3 wickets in his spell.
Chasing 143, Knights lost the first wicket in the first over itself. Phangiso bowled an extremely good first over and all of a sudden Knights looked to be under pressure. This is when Rilee Russouw arrived at the crease and took the control of the game. He partnered with Jacques Snyman for a brilliant 2nd wicket partnership to bring Knights back into the game. Russouw kept counter attacking and did not let the opposition sit on his head. He remained unbeaten at 73 off 51 balls to take his team home by 6 wickets.
