MICT vs JSK Team Previews

MI Cape Town

MI Cape Town has been rather inconsistent this year. With 2 wins and as many losses in 4 games, they are currently placed 2nd on the points table and are coming into this contest on the back of a 6-wicket loss against the Paarl Royals.

Cape Town boasts a strong batting line-up that has explosive batsmen like Rassie van der Dussen, Dewald Brevis, and Reeza Hendricks. Van der Dussen scored an excellent half-century in the previous match and looks in fine touch. He will open the batting here.

The team has experimented with a few opening pairs but is yet to settle down on a strong pair. In the middle order, Colin Ingram, Connor Esterhuizen, and George Linde have some good starts but have yet to play a big knock.

Cape Town has a strong pace attack with experienced bowlers like Trent Boult, Kagiso Rabada, Delani Potgieter, and Azmatullah Omarzai. Potgieter is the team’s leading wicket-taker with 5 wickets. The spin department will be headlined by Rashid Khan, who has 3 wickets in 4 games.

Joburg Super Kings

The Super Kings’ latest match against the Pretoria Capitals was washed out due to rain, allowing them to share points. This means that the Super Kings remain undefeated and are at the top of the points table.

The Super Kings will bank on the opening pair of Devon Conway and Faf du Plessis to give them a good start. The duo has plenty of experience playing in T20 leagues and if they get going, the team can score plenty of runs in the Powerplay.

Leus du Plooy has played well in both matches and is the team’s leading run-scorer. He will be joined by Johnny Bairstow and Donovan Ferreira in the middle order. However, the squad has had plenty of injuries over the past couple of days as Wihan Lubbe, Gerald Coetzee, Matheesha Pathirana, and Tabraiz Shamsi all missed the previous game.

As a result, Hardus Viljoen, Evan Jones, and Lutho Sipamla will lead the pace department, while Imran Tahir and Moeen Ali will be the lead spinners.

MICT vs JSK Toss Prediction

The team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first.

Pitch and Conditions

The pitch at Cape Town is good to bat on during the first half. The surface is hard and offers a good pace and bounce, allowing the batsmen to play their shots. That said, the seamers can expect some help when the ball is new.

As the match progresses, the surface becomes a bit two-paced, and going after the bowling will get difficult. The slower bowlers will get some help as well.

Chasing anything over 150 will be difficult. The weather will remain clear with temperatures of around 20 degrees.

MICT vs JSK Betting Tips

Both the teams are among the strongest in the league and we are expecting a cracking contest between them. There is very little separating the two teams. We are still backing MI Cape Town to win this game, though. They have a balanced squad with a strong pace attack, while the Super Kings are battling with injuries.

Bet on MI Cape Town to win.
