Pre-Match Analysis:

MI Cape Town showed a lot of spirit on the field and got the desired result for their efforts in the opening game as they thrashed Paarl Royals by 8 wickets. It was the bowlers who displayed next-level performance as they held David Miller and company for just 142 runs on the board. In return, the batters came to all guns blazing and finished things with 27 balls still left in the game. Dewald Brevis made a statement with a reckless unbeaten 70* runs from just 41 balls. They have got arguably the world-class bowling setup and are expected to deliver the same in this match.

Durban Super Giants were very much in the match against Super Kings however consumed a lot of dot balls at the death which proved costly as a result they lost the match by 16 runs. They were top-class with the ball in the powerplay and were ordinary at the death as they conceded way too many runs. Chasing 190 runs, the openers Kyle Mayers and Quinton de Kock put up a solid foundation and added 98 runs in just 11 overs. The boundaries dried once de Kock got dismissed. Looks like their middle order lacks a genuine batter with plenty of all-rounders in the mix. They need to regroup and come back well in this match.
