The Knights will lock horns with the Warriors in the 14th match of the CSA T20 Challenge 2022 at St George’s Park in Port Elizabeth.

The Knights are languishing at the bottom of the table. They have played three games so far and failed to win a single game. They faced the Titans in their previous fixture and suffered a loss.

After being asked to bowl first, the bowlers did a fine job of restricting the Titans to 151 in their 20 overs. They picked up six wickets in the process. What followed was a disappointing performance from their batters as they were knocked over on 124, losing the game by 27 runs.

The Warriors, on the other hand, have played three games so far and managed to win only a single game. They lost to the Dolphins in their last game.

Bowling first, the bowlers struggled to pick up wickets as the Dolphins scored 211 in their 20 overs.

They didn’t have the best of the starts while batting as well. Tristan Stubbs, lower down the order, tried hard and remained unbeaten on 80 but failed to take his side across the line as they fell short by 20 runs.
