Dragons outspin the Lions in thrilling CSA Challenge win

Cape Town - The sluggish St George's Park surface produced another thrilling CSA T20 Challenge clash between North West and the Lions on Tuesday.

The two Highveld teams are accustomed to playing on roads at Senwes Park and the Wanderers respectively where their batters can just hit freely through the line. But down at the coast here in Gqberha it requires a little bit more nuance and skill to accumulate runs.

Ultimately, the North West Dragons posted 136/6 in their allotted 20 overs, which was 11 runs too good their Gauteng neighbours.

It was though only possible due to an unbroken 57-run partnership between Duan Jansen (32 not out off 18 balls, 3x4, 1x6) and Nono Pongolo (27 not out off 21 balls, 3x4) in just 5.3 overs.
