There is a promising opportunity on the horizon for Bavuma

Central Gauteng Lions coach Russell Domingo is confident that Temba Bavuma will perform well in Sunday’s T20 Challenge final against the KZN Dolphins at the Wanderers.

Bavuma has scored 164 runs in 11 innings this year, at an average of 23.42 and a strike rate of 120.58, with a highest score of 53*.

On Wednesday, he made 19* off 13 balls as the Lions beat the Northerns Titans by eight wickets in their home semi-final. Another Protea, Rassie van der Dussen, also performed well, scoring 75* off 45 balls.

The Lions will face a Dolphins side full of confidence, having won their last six matches, including Thursday’s semi-final against the EP Warriors at Kingsmead.

Central Gauteng Lions squad: Bjorn Fortuin, Ryan Rickelton, Reeza Hendricks, Temba Bavuma, Rassie van der Dussen, Mitchell van Buuren, Wiaan Mulder, Evan Jones, Tshepo Moreki, Codi Yusuf, Kwena Maphaka, Zubayr Hamza, Connor Esterhuizen, Junaid Dawood, Nqaba Peter, Kagiso Rabada, Delano Potgieter, Lutho Sipamla.
