The former emerged victorious in the league game between the two sides, but this is the contest that will matter the most. Do join us tomorrow for that one. Until then, it's goodbye from us. 17:52 Local Time, 15:52 GMT, 21:22 IST: Must say that it was a well-paced chase from the Lions. The target wasn't big and once their openers got that steady start, things fell in place. Although Hendricks and Rickelton fell in succession, Bavuma produced a gem and stitched a lovely stand with Van der Dussen to virtually seal the deal. There was a time when the Warriors spinners were choking the run flow but the senior duo brought out all their experience to counter the challenge. At the back end, Mulder brought out a few lusty blows along with Bavuma to finish the formalities. The Warriors fought well, but were probably about 10-15 runs short of a winning score. 19.1 Nabe to Mulder, SIX , Lions roar into the final! All that chat and it's only for one ball. Slower ball, sits on the surface and Mulder is waiting for this length to pummel the pull. Merrily over cow corner and that's the end of that. Such nonchalance from the all-rounder Mthiwekhaya Nabe [3.0-0-19-2] is back into the attack Six runs needed off the final over with seven wickets in the shed. Shouldn't be much of a trouble you'd think but crazier things have happened in knockout games. Big mini-conference among the Warriors players with Qeshile chatting to the senior players around him. Possibly about the field settings. The first two deliveries are crucial here, they would need a wicket to really stir things up. LIONS: 136-3 after 19 overs 18.6 Marco Jansen to Mulder, 1 run, very full and targeting the boots, Mulder somehow squeezes it away to long leg 18.5 Marco Jansen to Bavuma, 1 run, not yet he feels, as he works this slower ball towards square leg Run-a-ball now. Expect Bavuma to tee off soon. 18.4 Marco Jansen to Bavuma, no run, lovely off-cutter, angling across Bavuma who is beaten on the drive. Dot ball! 18.3 Marco Jansen to Bavuma, no run, fuller and straighter, jammed out back to the bowler 18.2 Marco Jansen to Bavuma, 2 runs, Bavuma looks to slog but gets a fat miscue towards deep backward square leg. He knows he can't be out and so they run two by the time the fielder can get to it. He did drop it by the way, not that it would have mattered 18.2 Marco Jansen to Mulder, no ball , 1 run, misses the yorker and doles out a high full toss, Mulder somehow gets it down to long-off from a miscue. Free Hit alert! 18.1 Marco Jansen to Mulder, no run, he starts well! Fuller and outside off, dug back towards Jansen who makes a good stop Marco Jansen [2.0-0-14-0] is back into the attack A mini-conference among the Warriors players about who should bowl the 19th over. After some thought, it's the left-arm seamer who gets the nod. Can he deliver? LIONS: 130-3 after 18 overs 17.6 Nortje to Mulder, 1 run, direct hit would have gotten Mulder! He had given up but the throw misses at the bowler's end and he survives. Got a leading edge towards point and the run was always risky 17.5 Nortje to Mulder, FOUR , a shot of high quality from Mulder! Whoa! Overpitched from Nortje, can't bowl that length on this pitch and Mulder makes him pay. Leans into a classical straight drive, full face of the blade and it races away to the fence in no time. Mid-off was a touch wider and had no chance 17.4 Nortje to Bavuma, 1 run, short of a good length around middle, Bavuma slogs but gets it off the inside half to deep square leg 17.3 Nortje to Mulder, 1 run, full toss on the pads, wristed away to deep square leg. Mulder has missed out here, was an offering to be put away 17.2 Nortje to Mulder, no run, shortish and outside off, guided off the back foot but straight to point. Two dots in a row. Whoa, is there some pressure on Mulder now? Load More Commentary
