Warriors Booted Out Of Cup Eliminator After Missing Transformation Target

The Warriors fell foul of Cricket South Africa's CSA domestic transformation selection policy on Monday, with the result that the Gqeberha side have dropped out of Wednesday's eliminator against the Titans in the CSA One-Day Cup competition.

After defeating the Lions in their final fixture at St George's Park on Sunday by 33 runs on the DLS method, it was thought the Warriors had done enough to qualify for the playoff in Centurion.

Boland ended top of the log and advanced straight through to this weekend's final, while the Titans finished in second place, ahead of the Warriors.

However, the Warriors' tournament aspirations were dashed when CSA released the official statistics of the competition on Monday morning, which showed the Warriors had been demoted to fourth place, with the Dolphins elevated to second spot.

A note issued with the final points table outlined the situation.
