THE Cape Cobras head into their crucial RAM SLAM T20 clash with The Unlimited Titans at PPC Newlands on Friday without their best two spinners after George Linde joined Robin Peterson on the injured list. Linde fractured a finger on his bowling hand during the five-wicket win over the Dolphins on Sunday, and so the Cobras have been forced to call on Siya Simetu for their two games this weekend. The left-arm spinner was a regular fixture in the Cobras side during the 2013/14 RAM SLAM, but did not feature at all last season and will need to adapt to the pace of the competition quickly.The defending champions currently sit third with 12 points from five games, but need to rein in the Titans after their bonus-point victory over the Dolphins on Wednesday put them top of the table with 21 points.
