The Delhi Daredevils and the Highveld Lions clash in the first of the two semi-final matches to decide which of the two progress to the title clash. The Daredevils – the only Indian team to progress to the knockouts – finished top of Group A with 12 points; they won two of their league matches, while the remaining two games got washed out due to wet weather.
The Highveld Lions finished second in Group B with as many points as the Daredevils. Their only defeat in the Group Stage came against the Sydney Sixers.
Expect both teams to bring their A game to the park in this all-important clash.
