Cape Town - Cape Town Blitz fast bowler and the Mzansi Super League's current leading wicket-taker, Dale Steyn has urged fans to come out in their numbers for the team's final home fixture of the league phase.

Approximately 6 800 people passed through the turnstiles at Newlands last Sunday - the highest attendance in this year's competition - to watch the Cape Town Blitz defeat the Tshwane Spartans by 15 runs.

"It's awesome to play in Cape Town. It is honestly my favourite ground in the world," Steyn said.

"Our last game is on Friday and I don't know what is going to happen, if we are going to make the playoffs, but it doesn't matter. Friday night is our last game here (at Newlands) and I am hoping for a similar crowd. Cape Town is the bomb.

All tickets for the match are R30 and can be purchased at ticketpros.co.za or at the Newlands Cricket Ground Ticket Office.

Play starts at 17:30.
