Pitch Report

The surface at Kingsmead is very good for batting in the first innings and the batters can capitalize on their chances and help their sides post challenging totals on the board. However, the pitch gets really difficult to chase and therefore, the captain winning the toss will have no second thoughts on batting first and putting runs on the board.

Probable Playing XIs for DUR vs PRE

Durban’s Super Giants (DUR):

Kyle Mayers, Wiaan Mulder, Quinton de Kock (c & wk), Heinrich Klaasen, Christiaan Jonker, Dwaine Pretorius, Jason Holder, Keshav Maharaj, Hardus Viljoen, Prenelan Subrayen, Reece Topley

Probable Best Performers for DUR vs PRE

Probable best batter: Phil Salt

The Pretoria Capitals will once again be relying on opener Phil Salt to provide them with a brisk start as he had done in the last encounter against the Joburg Super Kings. Salt single-handedly took the match away from the Super Kings with an explosive unbeaten 30-ball 52. The Durban bowlers must somehow figure out a way to dismiss the Englishman early.

Probable best bowler: James Neesham

While Proteas pacer Anrich Nortje roared back to form in the last game with a three-wicket haul, it was New Zealand all-rounder James Neesham who stole the show with a match-winning three-wicket haul and finished with 3/7 from his three overs at an outstanding economy rate of 2.33 to bag the Player of the Match award.
