What to expect:
Team news:
MI Cape Town: A so-so campaign so far has MI Cape Town placed fourth on the ladder at the halfway stage of the tournament, with 2 wins from 5 matches. They managed to win one of those clashes with a bonus point, as well. But, a very narrow loss against the current winners Eastern Cape at home was too hard to come to terms with.
MI Cape Town Key Players
- Ryan Rickleton – The left-handed opener comes into this game after hitting 342 runs at a very impressive strike rate of 179.05 in this tournament.
- Rassie van der Dussen – The 34-year-old tall right-hander will be keen to bounce back from a two-ball duck in Match 14 but overall his batting has been very strong in the tournament.
- Thomas Kaber – The left-arm wrist spinner has a strike-rate of 18.3 across his T20 career but he will be looking forward to returning to Newlands for this game.
- Nuwan Thushara – The right-arm medium-fast bowler picked up the big wickets of Jos Buttler and Fabian Allen in successive balls against Paarl Royals.
Probable XI: Ryan Rickelton(w), Rassie van der Dussen, Dewald Brevis, Connor Esterhuizen, Liam Livingstone, Kieron Pollard(c), Sam Curran, George Linde, Thomas Kaber, Kagiso Rabada, Nuwan Thushara
MI Cape Town Squad: Ryan Rickelton(w), Rassie van der Dussen, Dewald Brevis, Connor Esterhuizen, Liam Livingstone, Kieron Pollard(c), Sam Curran, George Linde, Thomas Kaber, Kagiso Rabada, Nuwan Thushara, Olly Stone, Beuran Hendricks, Tom Banton, Grant Roelofsen, Delano Potgieter, Duan Jansen, Chris Benjamin, Nealan van Heerden
Durban Super Giants: Notching up three consecutive wins in their first three matches gave them a brilliant head-start. They were going to be hard to catch, but after two back-to-back losses against lower-ranked teams, they’re now keen to turn things around.
Durban Super Giant’s Key Players
- Heinrich Klaasen – The 32-year-old right-handed middle order batter has hit over 3700 T20 runs with a strike rate of 147.13 and is in fine form ahead of this match.
- Matthew Breetzke – The opener hit six boundaries in the defeat against Sunrisers Eastern Cape and his quick-scoring at the top of the order has been impressive in this campaign.
- Reece Topley – The tall left-arm pace bowler dismissed his international team-mate, the in-form Dawid Malan, in the last game and he is a constant threat in T20 cricket.
- Marcus Stoinis – The Australian all-rounder picked up the wickets of Aiden Markram and Patrick Kruger in the last match. He always has the talent to turn a game with both bat and ball.
Probable XI: Matthew Breetzke, Quinton de Kock(w), JJ Smuts, Heinrich Klaasen, Marcus Stoinis, Wiaan Mulder, Dwaine Pretorius, Keshav Maharaj(c), Naveen-ul-Haq, Reece Topley, Noor Ahmad
Durban Super Giants Squad: Matthew Breetzke, Quinton de Kock(w), JJ Smuts, Heinrich Klaasen, Marcus Stoinis, Wiaan Mulder, Dwaine Pretorius, Keshav Maharaj(c), Naveen-ul-Haq, Reece Topley, Noor Ahmad, Prenelan Subrayen, Kyle Mayers, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Jason Smith, Junior Dala, Richard Gleeson, Tony de Zorzi, Keemo Paul, Bryce Parsons

Durban Super Giants
MI Cape Town vs Durban Super Giants Match Prediction
In spite of losing successive games, Durban’s Super Giants are still well placed in second spot and a win in this match will see them close the gap on the top once more. MI Cape Town have been over-reliant on Ryan Rickleton and we saw that when he fails with the bat they are not quite the same team. Our prediction is for a close contest with Durban’s Super Giants ending their run of defeats by winning this fixture.
We expect the Durban Super Giants to win this match.

MI Cape Town vs Durban Super Giants Match Both Team Top Batsmen
With the bat, Ryan Rickleton, Rassie van der Dussen, and Dewald Brevis are our recommendations for MI Cape Town. Brevis made a golden duck in the last game against Paarl Royals but he has an excellent reputation and he has a top score of 162 in T20 cricket. Rickleton will be looking forward to taking on Durban’s Super Giants bowlers again after hitting 87 runs from 51 balls earlier in this campaign.
For Durban’s Super Giants, Matthew Breetzke, Heinrich Klaasen and Wiaan Mulder are our batting tips. 25-year-old batting all-rounder hit four sixes and three fours in his 52 runs from 29 balls against Sunrisers Eastern Cape. Klaasen averages over 32 in T20 cricket and he has proven to be too strong for bowlers in the IPL, the 2023 Cricket World Cup, and plenty of other international matches.
MI Cape Town vs Durban Super Giants Match Both Team Top Team Bowlers
Nuwan Thushara, Thomas Kaber, and Kagiso Rabada are our bowling picks for MI Cape Town. Rabada went wicketless and was MI Cape Town’s most expensive bowler against Paarl Royals and as a top-level bowler, we can expect him to bounce back in this match. Thushara has taken 109 wickets in T20 cricket and his best figures in the format are 5/13.
We recommend Reece Topley, Marcus Stoinis, and Keshav Maharaj with the ball for the Durban Super Giants. Maharaj captains Durban’s Super Giants and dismissed opener Jordan Hermann in the defeat against Sunrisers Eastern Cape. He has 117 T20 wickets in his career so far. Topley is in excellent form with over 200 T20 wickets and a strike rate of 15.5 in this format.
