The Highveld Lions, with players from Gauteng and North West provinces in South Africa, qualify for the Airtel Champions League Twenty20 2010 by virtue of being runners-up in the Pro20 competition in South Africa. Among the players to look out for in the Lions' squad are captain Alviro Petersen, the ever-dependable Neil McKenzie. The Lions' Vaughn van Jaarsveld finished as the team's top run-getter (249 runs in 8 matches) - second in the list of the top run-getters in the Pro20 2009/10, while Robert Frylinck finished as the tournament's leading wicket-taker. The Lions will feature in the tournament's very first game, against the Mumbai Indians, which will be played at their home ground Wanderers. They certainly will be hoping to feature in the last game of the tournament too - the title clash - which will be played at the same ground.
