Aziz Damani will face Nyakasura on Saturday in the National Men’s 50 Over League looking to ascend to second place in the table standings.
Damani are currently placed third with 8 points, level on points with second placed Challengers, but a win for on Saturday will be enough for them to move up to second.
Since losing to league leaders Aziz Damani Development, Damani have not lost any game. They are on a four-game winning run, and as such head into this one as outright favourites.
Their opponents Nyakasura were last involved in league action on 24th September and they lost that game to Development by 9 wickets.
Nyakasura are currently seated 5th in the table standings with 6 points. Should they pull up a shocker on Saturday, they will dislodge Damani from the third position.
However, a loss for them will see them dragged from that position by Wanderers if the latter wins.
