The much-anticipated Nairobi Provincial Cricket Association (NPCA) 50-Overs Division 2 title chase is well and truly on a roll!<\/strong><\/p>\n

But the million-dollar question purists are asking as the fight continues to take shape is: who will win it?<\/p>\n

The title fight is indeed a two-horse race between leaders Ngara Sports Club B and second- placed Stray Lions C who are clearly angling for the coveted title with zest and vigor.<\/p>\n

But having not played a match last weekend, Stray Lions C are back in the saddle this weekend and on a spirited mission to dislodge leaders Ngara B from the summit.<\/p>\n

Ngara B have played a total of 11 matches against Stray Lions C\u2019s 9, an opportunity for the latter to leverage on the former\u2019s absence.<\/p>\n

Ngara B has no fixture this weekend but will definitely be as keen as a bean to ascertain just what transpires on week 15 this Sunday.<\/p>\n

Stray Lions C Play Wolves B at Viraj International Academy and should they prevail in this one, they\u2019ll have cut down Ngara B\u2019s 6-points lead to 2.<\/p>\n

Ngara B currently top Division 2 log with a cumulative points total of 36, meaning that if the Lions beat Wolves, they\u2019ll be on 34.<\/p>\n

Stray Lions C skipper Subin Abraham is optimistic of a good result this weekend. As a unit, Subin believes they\u2019re doing much better.<\/p>\n

Out of nine matches Stray Lions C has played, they have lost only once by 3 wickets to Stray Leopards B.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, we have a very good chance to win the 50 over league but then again, it\u2019s important to note that matches are crucial for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Subin avers that the essence has been to understand their opponent strengths and weaknesses, knowing the pitch conditions and having a game plan tailored to the situation.<\/p>\n

The Lions are looking for a win against Wolves ostensibly to pile the much-needed pressure on their South C adversaries.<\/p>\n

In other division two matches, Stray Leopards B face Obuya B at Impala whilst Swamibapa Development have a date with the GI Unicorns B at Jamhuri. An-nadil Jamaly will be up against Legends CC at Saifee Park.<\/p>\n

The Division One and Super Division titles have already been taken by Kanbis A and B respectively and focus will be on who prevails in Division Two.<\/p>\n
