WITH just three more rounds of matches to go before the group stage is completed there is certainly going to be a tussle to finish within the top four of each of the two groups to qualify for a place in the quarter-finals of the SLC Major Clubs T20 tournament which resumes today after a break for bad weather.

Tussle for quarter-final places resumes after the rains

The tournament was suspended after four rounds of matches due to adverse weather conditions and the matches are rescheduled to start from today with the group matches ending on 8 June and the quarter-finals due to commence from 11 June.

Finishing on top of the group guarantees a team meeting the fourth placed team of the other group in the quarter-finals. That will be the priority of the clubs vying for places in the last eight over the next four days when the remaining group matches will be completed.
