Preview

In the 8th game of the SA20 2025-26, MI Cape Town (MICT) are set to face Pretoria Capitals (PC). MI Cape Town was the defending champions of the league, but they didn't have a good start to this season as they lost the opening game. Moreover, their last game also got no result due to rain. They will definitely try their best to get a win in this match.

On the other hand, Pretoria Capitals didn't have a good start to this season as they lost both games so far. They also lost the previous game by 48 runs against the Sunrisers Eastern Cape. However, Will Smeed and Shai Hope performed well in the last game and scored 35 and 36 runs, respectively. While Tymal Mills did well bowling and took two wickets.

Pitch Report

The pitch at Newlands Stadium in Cape Town is often a balanced surface. This surface is initially challenging for batsmen, but becomes more favourable as the match progresses. Initially, fast bowlers can swing the ball, making it difficult for batsmen. However, after the first few overs, the pitch settles down, providing consistent bounce and allowing the batsmen to take control of the match. Overall, this will be a good track where we will see a tough contest between bat and bat.
