On Day 2 of the brand new SA20 2025 season, Durban Super Giants will clash with Pretoria Capitals on January 10 at the Kingsmead Stadium in Durban. The matchup will begin from 9.00 PM IST.

Last season’s runners-up, Durban Super Giants, will aim for redemption in 2025. With Keshav Maharaj at their helm as captain, the team looks set to be strong contenders for the title. While Naveen-Ul-Haq will lead the pace attack, Quinton de Kock will be responsible for providing his team with a brisk start.

On the other hand, Pretoria Capitals had a season to forget in 2024 as they finished fifth on the points table with just three wins in 10 games. Meanwhile, the Capitals’ squad also looks balanced. Rilee Rossouw and Rahmanullah Gurbaz are likely to set the tone in top order. Anrich Nortje, James Neesham, and Daryn Dupavillon are some notable names in the bowling lineup that will boost the Capitals’ confidence.

Ahead of the high-voltage game, let’s look at the two teams head-to-head standings:

What happened when they last played?

The last time Durban Super Giants locked horns with Pretoria Capitals was on January 30, 2024. Batting first, DSG set up a target of 175 runs after Breetzke hammered 73 off 46 balls. Heinrich Klaasen also played an entertaining knock of 30 off 18 balls to steer the Giants to a convincing total.

In the chase, however, Pretoria Capitals failed to build partnerships. Will Jacks had a solid outing of 41 of 26 balls, but Junior Dala’s five-wicket-haul crushed the Capital's hopes. Rilee Rossouw’s timid knock of 10 off 27 balls hurt the team as they fell eight runs short in the chase to face a defeat.
