BOL vs KNG Match Prediction & Analysis
Boland are heading into the encounter looking to get the season underway. After picking up two points from the first match, the team are already three points behind the Titans. The Knights ended up losing the first match of the season and they are one of the three teams to have not picked up any points from the opening round of games.
Last season, Boland had plenty of troubles that saw them finish just one place at the bottom. Boland will be hoping for some degree of positivity in the campaign while the Knights are carrying weights from the opening-day loss against North West.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Rocks Preview
Boland had a terrible 2023 campaign with the team finishing just above the bottom. This nightmare campaign saw the team only four victories from the 14 matches. If not for the small victories achieved towards the end of the season against the Warriors and KZN-Inland, Boland could have finished even lower down the table.
Ferisco Adams was one of the influential players with the bat after chipping in with 261 runs in the 2023 campaign. Yet, he was able to average only 26 runs in these 12 innings. Clyde Fortuin comes a close second in of assisting the team with his 253 runs, which were picked up at an average of 13 innings. Boland will be counting on other players to step in, as a strong batting line-up would be crucial for a team that had the third-worst offensive performance with the bat.
The struggles faced by Boland were not down just to the batting performances, as the team were also let down by the bowlers. Siyabonga Mahima came up with 11 wickets in the whole season and he ended up as the top wicket-taker for Boland.
BOL Over/Under Betting Tips
Pieter Malan is one of the most consistent run-scorers for Boland, he was ruled out quite early in the season the last time around. He is fit and ready to return to the CSA T20 cup, he averages over 25 in T20's and can make a huge impact at the top of the order.
Rocks Predicted Playing XI:
Janneman Malan, Pieter Malan, Michael Copeland, Gavin Kaplan, Ferisco Adams, Nathan Jacobs, Aviwe Mgijima, Clyde Fortuin, Keith Dudgeon, Siyabonga Mahima, Lehan Botha
Rocks Actual Playing XI:
Pieter Malan, Shaun von Berg, Ferisco Adams, Ayabulela Gqamane, Grant Roelofsen, Clyde Fortuin, Gavin Kaplan, Keith Dudgeon, Siyabonga Mahima, Imran Manack, Mickey Copeland
Knights Preview
The Knights were able to reach the semi-final of the CSA Provincial T20 Cup 2023-24 where they were beaten by Northern Cape. However, the team taking part in the CSA T20 2024-25 can be seen as a big boost, but they are likely to struggle in the early weeks of the campaign. The loss against North West might have been only through three points, but beginning the campaign in a losing fashion can have a deep impact on their morale.
The match against North West witnessed a decent top-order performance from the Knights batsmen. Dian Forrester was particularly impressive after coming up with 46 runs from his 37 matches while his partnership with Lesego Senokwane turned out to be crucial for the team. The latter was able to come up with 39 runs from just 31 balls.
It was with the ball where the team had big struggles, as they were unable to stop North West from posting a decent early despite taking out their openers for ducks. Dian Forrester and Malusi Siboto were able to manage two wickets each.
Knights Predicted Playing XI:
Jacques Snyman, Gihahn Cloete, Lesego Senokwane, Patrick Botha, Dian Forrester, Aubrey Swanepoel, Tiaan van Vuuren, Aaron Phangiso, Dane Piedt (c), Malusi Siboto, Johannes van Dyk

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The Boland Park witnessed an average score of 125 in the two matches that were played on this ground last season. The Knights were able to get 146 in their first and only match of the season so far. The weather in Paarl is expected to be partly cloudy for the day with maximum temperatures hitting 36°C.
BOL vs KNG Pitch Report
The Boland Park in Paarl was not able to witness any success for Boland in the 2023-24 campaign. After having witnessed moderate scores of 120+ in both games last season, the expectation for another mediocre game is on the cards.
Total Over/Under Betting Tips
The average total match scores in the last five CSA T20 cup matches played at Paarl is 253 runs. The surface at this venue favours the bowlers and runs are hard to come by. We predict another low scoring affair in today's match and predict the total score to be under 306.5 runs.
Toss: To Bat
The Boland Park hosted two matches during the 2023-24 campaign. This will be the first time the stadium gets to host CSA T20 matches. Boland chose to bat first after winning the toss in their last match on this ground. In both home matches, Boland ended up losing the game. The slightly better batting lineup should convince Boland to set a target rather than chase.
BOL vs KNG
Winning Prediction
Boland and Knights are very evenly matched coming into the game. The Knights, though, have added pressure after having suffered a loss in the first match of the season. As a match that could pit two teams struggling at the end of the season, both teams must get maximum points. Boland, though, have that slight bit of quality to see them through.
Our prediction is for Boland to win!
