TEAMS PREVIEW
Joburg Super Kings Preview
Joburg Super Kings enter the SA20 2025 season with fresh energy, strengthened by key additions to their squad and a clear focus on improving past results. South African veteran Faf du Plessis will captain the side, bringing a wealth of experience and a reputation for consistency at the crease.
Du Plessis is among the most seasoned players in the tournament and often delivers for franchises worldwide. Playing in familiar home conditions provides extra motivation, and his ability to exploit the field restrictions during the powerplay could set the tone for Joburg’s innings.
At the top of the order, Leus du Plooy and Devon Conway form a dependable opening pair. Du Plooy has 329 runs in his last ten SA20 appearances, while Conway, also the team’s wicketkeeper, brings stability with the bat.
The middle-order is anchored by Sibonelo Makhanya and Moeen Ali, offering flexibility and firepower. Moeen’s skill set as an all-rounder makes him invaluable—his powerful hitting and precise off-spin give the team multiple options. Donovan Ferreira, known for finishing games under pressure, adds further depth.
On the bowling front, Gerald Coetzee and Lizaad Williams lead a dynamic pace attack. Williams, with 14 wickets in his last seven games, has been a standout performer, while Coetzee continues to grow in stature. The spin department is equally strong, with Sri Lanka’s Maheesh Theekshana partnering with seasoned campaigner Imran Tahir.
Left-arm seamer Nandre Burger completes the attack, providing variation with his angle.
JSK Over/Under Betting Tips
Du Plessis enters this tournament with strong form, having scored 233 runs in his last 10 T20 matches (average 33.29). His impressive record at Johannesburg (553 runs in 15 matches, average 42.5) further bolsters his chances. Considering his recent form and venue performance, we anticipate Du Plessis to score over 22.5 runs against MI.
Joburg Super Kings Predicted Playing XI:
Leus du Plooy, Devon Conway (wk), Faf du Plessis (c), Sibonelo Makhanya, Moeen Ali, Donovan Ferreira, Gerald Coetzee, Maheesh Theekshana, Lizaad Williams, Nandre Burger, Imran Tahir

MI Cape Town Preview
After struggling at the bottom of the table in the previous two seasons, MI Cape Town have started this year with a bang. A commanding 97-run victory over defending champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape earned them a bonus point and renewed optimism for a successful campaign.
Rassie van der Dussen and Reeza Hendricks form the backbone of the batting unit, providing stability during the powerplay. Adding excitement is young Dewald Brevis, who smashed 57 off just 23 balls in the opener against the Sunrisers. Colin Ingram’s wealth of experience further bolsters the middle order.
Promising wicketkeeper-batter Connor Esterhuizen, who has a T20 career-best of 62 not out, will be eager to leave his mark. Meanwhile, all-rounders Delano Potgieter and Azmatullah Omarzai offer a balance of power hitting and medium-pace options, adding depth to the squad.
George Linde, with his left-arm spin and aggressive batting style, provides additional strength in the lower order. He has accumulated more than 2,000 runs and 170 wickets in T20s.
Rashid Khan, the team’s captain and a world-class leg-spinner, spearheads the bowling attack. With 16 four-wicket hauls in his T20 career, his expertise will be crucial, especially alongside Trent Boult’s sharp left-arm swing. Boult’s impressive figures of 2-16 against Sunrisers included a double-wicket maiden, reaffirming his threat with the new ball.
While Kagiso Rabada may remain sidelined, MI Cape Town will rely on their well-rounded bowling lineup, including Rashid, Boult, Omarzai, and Corbin Bosch, to maintain momentum in the tournament.
MICT Over/Under Betting Tips
Famously known as the "Baby ABD," Dewald Brevis showed up to work in the first game of the season, smashing 57 runs in 29 balls. Against the Joburg Super Kings, Brevis has smashed 74 runs, averaging 24.7 runs per innings. With him entering this game in good form and the surface at the Wanderers favoring batters, we back him to score over 18.5 runs in this fixture.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
Batters love walking out to the crease at the Wanderers Stadium, where runs typically flow freely. The track's true bounce and quick nature let stroke-makers trust their shots and play with confidence. Though it's definitely a batting-friendly surface, today's moisture could make the ball dart around even more off the seam for the fast bowlers.
Johannesburg's forecast shows overcast conditions throughout the day, with scattered thunderstorms expected to roll in by evening. Teams should brace for possible delays at the start or stoppages during play.
JSK vs MICT Pitch Report
The average score batting first at the Wanderers Stadium is 165. However, of late, the venue has produced some big scores. The last T20I played here saw India post a mammoth 283-1 against South Africa. Last season in the SA20, the highest score posted at the venue was MI Cape Town’s 243-5 versus Joburg Super Kings. This shows that scores of around 200 have become common here by the team batting first.
Total Over/Under Betting Tips
Joburg Super Kings and MI Cape Town are 2-2 in coin tosses, for this fixture we are backing the home team to win the coin toss.
The pitch at the Wanderers offers a lively track that favours the batters and the short square boundaries further aid them. Last season the average total match score was 324 runs, where four of the seven matches have seen scores in excess of over 340 runs. We predict a high scoring affair considering it is the first game of the season at this venue.
Toss: To Bowl
Looking at past results, teams batting second have generally done better here, which might push captains to bowl first at the toss and know exactly what they're chasing.
JSK vs MICT
Winning Prediction
Assuming we get some play in, MI Cape Town are the team to watch. They were on fire in their last game, especially their bowlers. Joburg might find it tough to put up a big score against them, regardless of whether the Super Kings are batting first or chasing. MI Cape Town appear to be a competent and complete side this year. Therefore, going with them to win a second straight game seems like a sensible choice.
We are backing MI Cape Town to make it two wins out of two.
