Lions vs Boland Betting Odds

Boland to have a better opening partnership than Lions

Lions and Boland head into this season after both sides had contrasting campaigns last season. Boland struggled to make an impact last season as they ended up with three wins in seven matches and missed the playoffs. In the opening game Boland went head to head against North West and they won the game by nine runs. On the other hand, the Lions were sensational last season as they went all the way and won the championship. Last season both sides went head to head and Lions won the game by six wickets but it was Boland who had a better opening partnership which makes us believe Boland will once again end up with a better opening stand in the upcoming game.
