Lions take on Knights in the 15th game of the 2024 CSA T20 Challenge at the Mangaung Oval, Bloemfontein. The game is scheduled to be played on Oct 09 at 09:30 PM IST.

Lions vs Knights Chance of Winning

Knights did not have a great start to the tournament as they lost the opening game against North West by three wins. Once again in the second game Knights were on the other side of the table as they lost a close game in Super Over against Boland. They managed to turn things around in the last game as they beat Warriors by 16 runs.

Much like their opponents, Lions had a disappointing start to the season as they were outplayed by Titans in the opening game which they lost by 117 runs. Lions managed to turn things around as they have won back to back games against Warriors and Dolphins. As per our calculations, Lions are favourites in the upcoming game.

• Lions’ chances of winning - 58%
• Knights’ chances of winning - 42%

Lions vs Knights Prediction & Betting Tips 2024

Zubayr Hamza only played three games last season but looked promising and has played both games thus far. Hamza has struggled to make an impact in the three matches as he has scored 2, 6 and 15 which showcases his struggle. We believe Hamza would once again score low in the upcoming game.

Even though Patrick Botha did not have a great game in the last outing he has made a solid start to the tournament as in the first two matches Botha scored 21 and 37 and has looked great thus far which makes us believe he will continue his good form and will score well in the upcoming game.

Lions vs Knights Match Toss Prediction

Historically the venue has suited the team bowling first, the last two matches have been won by the team that batted first which makes us believe both sides would prefer to bat first in the upcoming game.

Weather Report

With 5% chances of disruptions we believe climate would not play a major role in the game. Maximum temperature is expected to be 29C during the game and minimum temperature is expected to be 14C.

Lions vs Knights Betting Odds

Lions to have a better opening partnership than Knights

Knights and Lions go head into this game after contrasting start to the campaign. Knights got promoted this year and struggled in the first two matches but managed to turn things around in the last game as they beat the Warriors in the last game. On the other hand, the Lions have won back to back games and would be hoping to continue their winning run when they take on Knights in the next game. What makes this tip so enticing is the fact that in each of the last two games Knights have conceded a bigger opening stand which makes us believe Lions would end up having a better opening stand in the upcoming game and it's a great opportunity to make some quick financial gains.

Lions vs Knights Top Batters

Evan Jones to be Lions’ top batter

Evan Jones has had a brilliant start to the campaign, in the opening game he scored a brilliant half century and in the last game he scored an unbeaten 29 as he took his team over the line which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Lesego Senokwane to be Knights’ top batter

Lesego Senokwane has been the most consistent batsman for knights thus far as in three games he has scored 39, 24 and 27. We expect him to convert his starts into a big score which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Lions vs Knights Top Bowlers

Junaid Dawood to be Lions’ top bowler

Junaid Dawood continued his brilliant form in the last match as he bagged three wickets and had the best bowling figures in the game. With eight wickets, he is the leading wicket taker for his side which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Malusi Siboto to be Knights’ top bowler

Malusi Siboto has made an impact in this campaign as he has been pretty consistent in the first three games and with eight wickets he is the leading wicket taker for his side which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Lions

Even though Lions and Knights have an identical record in T20 format, Lions have looked far more dominant as they head into this game after back to back wins. The bookmakers have favoured Lions in this game and we believe you should do the same as Lions would bag maximum points in the upcoming game.
