They take on the Fat Henry Drakensberg Thunder and then the Aucor Durban Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>For the bottom four sides, there is still a good possibility that things in the top half could change. With five points for a win, there is plenty of wiggle room for the Drakensberg Thunder and the Jooma Properties Zulu Kings \u2013 who both have two games in hand.<\/p>\n<p>Should the Kings and the Thunder win their matches on Saturday morning, then the final game between the two sides on Saturday afternoon at the Maritzburg Varsity Cricket Oval will be an effective quarter final.<\/p>\n<p>The Hurricanes have got one game left against the log leading Spurs on Saturday morning to decide their fate for the rest of the competition. Nothing less than a win will do for the defending champions.<\/p>\n<p>The Synergy Umgeni Rhinos have one more match left in the competition against the Wizards to salvage some pride and register a win.<\/p>\n<p>There were a number of strong performances throughout the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Hollywoodbets Dolphins wicket-keeper\/batsman Grant Roelofsen registered the highest score of the weekend with 96 not out for the Hurricanes against the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>Dolphins all-rounder Sibz Makhanya was in good form with both the bat and the ball. He helped rocket the Wizards into the play-off places.<\/p>\n<p>Prenelan Subrayen scored 68 not out for the Zulu Kings while Eathan Bosch made 87 in a match-winning effort from the Thunder.<\/p>\n<p>Young Andile Simelane showed his potential for the Durban Chiefs as they push for a semi-final spot while captain of the Spurs Calvin Savage continued his good form with the bat.<\/p>\n<p>The final round robin games will return to Pietermaritzburg as the Pietermaritzburg Oval and the UKZN Varisty Oval host the final round this Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>The semi-finals and the
