Zim Afro T10 2023 Most Runs and Most Wickets Standings: Rahmaullah Gurbaz and Brad Evans lead the charts - Updated after Match 23

The Zim Afro T10 League 2023 finally entered the playoffs on Friday as the tournament came to its final stages. While the results of the matches tend to have no effect on the points table now, the batting and bowling charts are still affected based on players’ performances.

The Qualifier took place between Joburg Buffaloes and Durban Qalandars. On batting first, the Qalandars posted a formidable total of 140 runs which looked like a decent score for the opponents to chase. Mohammad Hafeez and co managed to chase the total, sparing one ball to win by six wickets. As a result, the Buffaloes reached the final.

The Eliminator saw Harare Hurricanes locking horns with Cape Town Samp Army and coming out on top. The Hurricanes proceeded to Qualifier 2 to face the Qalandars while the Samp Army prepared to go back home. The Samp Army posted 145 in their allotted overs but the venue turned out batting-friendly as Hurricanes chased it down in 9.2 overs to win by a vast margin of nine wickets.

The Hurricanes then faced off against the Qalandars in the Qualifier 2. The Qalandars bounced back strong this time and defeated the Hurricanes by four wickets to get the tickets to the final. This time, the Qalandars bowlers showed resilience and halted the opponents on 84 who batted first. In reply, Craig Ervine’s batters shone, reaching the feat in 8.4 overs which pushed them to the grand finale.
