Cricket South Africa‘s four-day franchise series, a domestic first-class competition, gets underway this week – here is the schedule and list of fixtures.
The series in South Africa will feature teams from all nine provinces split into 15 different teams. The teams will compete across two divisions with the top division playing a round of matches in November before the competition resumes in early February 2023.
Reigning champions Titans benefitted from Simon Harmer’s excellence last year, who was by far and away the tournament’s most effective bowler. He took 44 wickets in seven matches including three five-fors as his side claimed a tight victory over the Warriors. Pieter Malan was the star of last year’s tournament with the bat, racking up 601 runs at an average of 45.94.
