TEAMS PREVIEW
Pretoria Capitals Preview
With just two wins from their first six matches in this season's SA20, the Capitals seek to build on their recent success. Having successfully defended a modest 126-run target against reigning champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape, the team has gained momentum.
Adil Rashid and Wayne Parnell, key performers in the last match with three wickets each, carry the potential to play crucial roles in the fixture. Meanwhile, fast bowler Daryn Dupavillon continues to impress as a valuable replacement for the sidelined Anrich Nortje.
The Capitals need to step up their batting performance. The inclusion of middle-order batsman Shane Dadswell in the previous match against the Sunrisers raises questions about his selection in the game. Furthermore, opener Will Jacks, despite a century earlier in the tournament, has struggled, managing only 13 runs in three innings since.
Jacks and his England colleague Phil Salt spearhead the Pretoria batting order, setting high expectations for a strong start, whether they bat first or second. Nevertheless, the middle order must play a crucial role in offering substantial against a determined Joburg bowling attack.
Pretoria Capitals Predicted Playing XI:
Philip Salt (wk), Will Jacks, Kyle Verreynne, Rilee Rossouw, Colin Ingram, James Neesham, Shane Dadswell, Wayne Parnell (c), Eathan Bosch, Adil Rashid, Daryn Dupavillon

Joburg Super Kings Preview
Joburg is near the bottom of the standings, having won only once this season. Despite high expectations for their season, the squad failed to deliver. Both their batting lineup and bowling unit have struggled to deliver. This match against the Capitals could be the perfect opportunity for them to turn things around.
Leus du Plooy and Reeza Hendricks are the only key contributors with the bat for the Super Kings. However, even their numbers do not provide an impressive picture. Du Plooy has scored 183 runs in five innings, while Hendricks has 129 in the same number of games. The troubling part is Faf du Plessis' startling drop in form, with only 49 runs in five innings.
The Super Kings have found a standout performer in Lizaad Williams, who has emerged as their top bowler this season with an impressive tally of 10 wickets. Outperforming his teammates by five wickets, the right-arm seamer has regularly bowled with good pace and tight lines. His noteworthy performance positions him as a compelling candidate for South Africa's T20 World Cup squad later this year.
Joburg need to find a way of channeling de Plooy and Hendricks' promise and Williams' success into tangible results for the team. The Super Kings must deliver quickly. Failure to do so could jeopardize their chances of progressing to the next stage of the tournament.
Joburg Super Kings Predicted Playing XI:
Reeza Hendricks, Faf du Plessis (c), Leus du Plooy, Sibonelo Makhanya, Moeen Ali, Donovan Ferreira (wk), Romario Shepherd, Kyle Simmonds, Lizaad Williams, Nandre Burger, Imran Tahir

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The pitch at SuperSport Park appears to be slowing down as the season progresses. It’s still a very good batting wicket, but slower bowlers will have their say here once the ball loses its shine.
The forecast for Centurion indicates abundant rain throughout the week, suggesting the possibility of weather disruptions and potential match shortening.
PC vs JSK Pitch Report
SuperSport Park in the current SA20 season has seen first-innings scores of 210, 204, and 125. Despite the recent low totals, it remains a high-scoring ground. Achieving a first-innings total exceeding 180 will be seen as par here.
Toss: To Bowl
This is the fourth encounter in Centurion in the current SA20 season. In the previous three matches, the decision to bowl first was made twice, and batting was decided once. In the previous SA20 match at this venue, after winning the toss, the Sunrisers chose to bowl first and were defeated. The team that wins the toss in this game will most likely choose to bat first.
PC vs JSK
Winning Prediction
The Capitals and Super Kings faced off three times in the SA20, resulting in two wins for Pretoria and one for Joburg. The Kings emerged victorious in their earlier 2024 SA20 encounter. Bolstered by a recent triumph over the Sunrisers, Pretoria heads into the match full of confidence after defeating the Sunrisers, while Joburg are struggling to find their footing.
We are backing Pretoria Capitals as the winners of this match.
