The Leinster Lightning have won the tournament a record five times so far and will be looking to continue their dominance in the shortest format of the game. Their last title victory came in 2018 against the Northern Knights. The George Dockrell-led Lightning were impressive in the recent 50-over tournament as well.

Meanwhile, Munster Reds have some impressive performers on their side, with Tyrone Kane leading from the front. However, they had a forgetful outing in the recent 50-over Cup with three defeats and finished at the bottom of the points table. With the shortest format suiting their players’ game, we can expect Munster Reds to fire on all cylinders in this tournament.
