2008–09 MTN Domestic Championship
The MTN Domestic Championship is the premier one-day cricket championship in South Africa. It is a one day game; each team plays each other twice in a home and away leg. It is based on the same principle as a one-day international. The top four teams progress to the semi-finals, with the winners of the semi-finals going through to the final.
