The Lions will not have the opportunity to defend their CSA T20 Challenge trophy after a defeat in a super over against North West Dragons in a thrilling contest at the Wanderers.
Boland preserved their perfect start to the CSA T20 Challenge with a nerve-shredding five-run victory over the Dolphins in Paarl on Friday evening.
The North West Dragons beat the KZN Tuskers in Potchefstroom while the Warriors comfortably saw off the Lions in Gqeberha in CSA T20 Challenge fixtures on Tuesday.
