Highveld Lions bowled really well. They kept picking up timely wickets but kept leaking runs at the same rate. They were unable to keep the run rate in check. The spinners did really well but in the end, Highveld Lions came out on the wrong end of the result.
Warriors were off to a solid start, thanks to the opening stand of Matthew Breetzke and Wihan Lubbe. Both the batters racked up runs at a brisk rate. Even though Warriors lost two wickets inside the Powerplay, they were never behind the asking rate. There was a period when they lost wickets in quick succession. Although, Lesiba Ngoepe kept his nerves till the very end and got his side over the line.

What a victory for the Warriors. They looked to be in all sorts of trouble in the middle but in the end, Lesiba Ngoepe led from the front and took his side over the line. Highveld Lions would be disappointed with their effort with the ball.
