The KFC T20 Max Competition 2024 continued on Monday, August 26, with two matches. Valley defeated University of Queensland by a huge margin in the day's first match, while Wynnum-Manly secured a tight win over Ipswich.
Regardless of the two outcomes, Redlands continue to remain at the top of the KFC T20 Max Competition 2024 points table with three wins in three matches. Northern Suburbs and Western Suburbs also retained their slots at number two and number three respectively on the 12-team points ladder. Valley jumped from eight to four after defeating University of Queensland by 70 runs.
Owing to Valley’s sudden insurgence, teams like Ipswich, Sandgate-Redcliffe, Gold Coast, and Toombul lost a rung each to slip to number five, six, seven, and eight in that order on the points table. University of Queensland also retained themselves at number nine on the standings.
Wynnum-Manly and South Brisbane take the 10th and 11th positions while winless Sunshine Coast continue to languish at the bottom of the table.

Between Wynnum-Manly and Ipswich at the Ian Healy Oval, the former batted first and cracked 173/5 from 20 overs.
