The 2018–19 CSA T20 Challenge was the sixteenth season of the CSA T20 Challenge, established by Cricket South Africa. It took place from 5 April to 5 May 2019.[1][2] Titans were the defending champions.[3]

In April 2019, Cricket South Africa announced that this would be the final edition of the T20 Challenge, due to austerity measures and a restructure of domestic cricket in the country.[4][5][6] Rain played a factor during the tournament, with several matches ending in a no result or being abandoned,[7][8][9] including all three matches scheduled to be played on Easter Monday.[10]

Following the conclusion of the group stage matches, Lions, Warriors, Cape Cobras and Dolphins had all progressed to the semi-finals of the tournament.[11] Lions and Dolphins played each other in the first semi-final,[12] with Warriors and Cape Cobras playing each other in the second semi-final.[13] In the first semi-final, Lions beat Dolphins by eight wickets to progress to the final of the tournament.[14] They were joined in the final by Warriors, who beat Cape Cobras by 15 runs in their semi-final match.[15] Lions won the tournament, beating Warriors by 11 runs in the final.[16]
