Scorecard summary
Lions 188/7(20 overs)
Titans 143/10(18.5 overs)

A strange occurance indeed, all the wickets fell in twos off the same over

Catches win matches indeed, its been a phenomenalcatching performance from the homw side, and they will feel on top of the world as they prepare to take on the Cobras next Friday

All three games here have given the crowd their money's worth, its been packed every game and its all set up to be an incredible final

Exceptional upfront bowling from Kruger and then a good spell from de wet and Coetsee's death bowling heroics have secured the home final

We mustn't forget van Jaarsveld's good batting, although he is on the loosing side today

We'll see you all next week for the final
