The 2010 Stanbic Bank 20 Series in February was a Twenty20 cricket competition held in Zimbabwe from 12–20 February 2010.[1] It was won by the Mountaineers, who defeated the Mashonaland Eagles in the final by nine wickets.[2]
The competition consisted of a round-robin group stage, followed directly by the final and third-place play-off. The Mashonaland Eagles topped the group stage, winning four of their five games, and faced the second-placed team, the Mountaineers in the final. The third-place play-off was contested between the teams finishing third and fourth in the group, the Desert Vipers and the Matabeleland Tuskers, both of which had won two matches, lost two, and had a match abandoned.[3]
Following the conclusion of the tournament, Zimbabwe Cricket declared themselves delighted, after the final drew a crowd of approximately 7,500, which was described as "the biggest for a domestic match in living memory."[4] This turnout was significantly greater than the average attendance for cricket in the preceding years which rarely passed 1,000.[4]
