MTN40 Final Venue

Hi everyone, with regards to the MTN40 final venue the situation is as follows:

The Chevrolet Warriors have a shared home ground at Axxess DSL St. George's and Buffalo Park in East London. Each year before the season starts, a decision is made about where the semi-finals and finals (which are grouped together) will be played based on rotation.  Due to the shared home ground semi-finals and finals are hosted on a rotational base between the two grounds.

played based on rotation. Due to the shared home ground, semi-finals and finals are hosted on a rotational base between the two grounds. **Continued in the next post....Last season the semi-finals of the Standard Bank Pro20 series was hosted at Axxess DSL St. George's and the final would have been hosted there as well, however, the Warriors did not make it to the final. This season, the next semi-final and final batch which the team would reach would thus be held in East London. As the Warriors have reached the finals for the MTN40 this season (and it is East London's turn to host a semi or final), the final will be played at Buffalo Park in East London on Friday 29 January 2010.

We understand the cause for confusion here with the SuperSport.com fixtures and we have contacted the webmaster to correct this. Unfortunately the date of the game is completely out of our hands and we understand that our PE supporters would like to attend the match, so we apologise that the date could not be set over the weekend.  However, we hope that you will continue to support the Warriors as you have done this season.  This is our chance to take the finals and we believe that it would mean as much to you as it would for the team to bring the trophy home.

Thanks so much for your comments and discussion - we need this to help improve your experience and find a better way forward!
