Final four set to battle but only one team can prevail

The DDCA T20 finals day is here and there are two mouthwatering match-ups planned for this Sunday at 10am.

Straithaird Recreation Reserve will be home to the clash between Narre South and Berwick.

The Lions are coming into the match as one of the in-form teams of the competition and if their recent T20 performances are any indication, they will go into this one as hot favourites.

Coming off scores of 195, 182 and 208, Narre South’s top order is having no trouble finding the boundary and tons to Oshadha Ariyadasa and Vineth Jayasuriya on Saturday will only help that.

Berwick’s bowling has been the key to its T20 success thus far, and taking some early key wickets will go a long way to booking a spot in the big dance.

Having won the grand final last year, the Bears know what it takes to go all the way and will be looking to defend their title.

A Turf 1 grand final rematch awaits, with Hallam Kalora Park set to host Buckley Ridges at Hallam Recreation Reserve.

Eyes will be on Bucks’ Dale Tormey and Mahela Udawatte, while the Hawks will look to Jawid Khan, Damith Perera and Shanogeeth Shanmuganathan, who scored 85 in the last match against Coomoora.

Both semi-finals kick off at 10am Sunday, with the grand final to be played at Hallam Recreation Reserve at 3pm.
