North West will take on Western Province in the 16th match of the CSA T20 Challenge 2022. The game will be played at St George's Park in Port Elizabeth.

North West have nine points to their name, having won two of their three games so far. After winning their first two games, they lost to the Rocks in their next fixture which was a thriller of a contest.

The Rocks posted 182 on the board after electing to bat first. It was a daunting task ahead of the North West but they were up to it as the game went down to the wire. They eventually finished exactly on 182 to force the game into a Super Over.

However, they failed to hold their nerves in the Super Over as they were handed their first loss in the competition.

Western Province, meanwhile, are unbeaten in the competition so far. They have won all three games they have played so far and sit at the top of the table with 12 points to their name. They beat the Lions in their last game.

Bowling first, the bowlers did a fine job of restricting the Lions to 140 in their 20 overs. The batters then stepped up and backed up their bowlers to chase down the total in the last over to win the game by five wickets.
