Potchefstroom - The Chevrolet Knights won the toss and elected to bat first in their Standard Bank Pro20 match against the bizbub Highveld Lions at Senwes Park in Potchefstroom on Wednesday.

Live Scoring

The Lions have endured a mixed start to their campaign, winning one and losing one of their two matches. Both games were decided off the last ball which highlights just how competitive this season’s Pro20 has been.

The Knights, after two losses in two games, are desperate for a win as another defeat could well signal the end of their semifinal ambitions.

The Lions are unchanged while the Knights have recalled left-arm quick Obus Pienaar in place of Dillon du Preez.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
