WEP vs HL Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11 and Pitch Report for CSA Provincial T20 Cup 2021-22, Match 1

Western Province will take on Highveld Lions in the first match of the CSA Provincial T20 Cup 2021-22 at the Diamond Oval in Kimberley on Friday.

Western Province had a forgettable CSA Provincial T20 Cup campaign in 2019-20. With just one win, they finished last in Pool C and will be hoping for a more improved run this time around.

However, they are going up against the defending champions in Highveld Lions. Lions were unstoppable last season. They beat Dolphins in the final by four wickets.
