JSK vs MICT: Match 4 Preview

Joburg Super Kings

Faf du Plessis's Joburg Super Kings have bolstered their batting line-up by bringing in the likes of Jonny Bairstow, Devon Conway, and Wihan Lubbe, alongside strengthening their bowling by signing the Sri Lankan slinger Matheesha Pathirana while transferring the spin maestro Tabraiz Shamsi in their side.

Also, they still have the energetic Imran Tahir and mystery spinner Maheesh Theekshana in their ranks, who although won't be available for the first game due to international commitments.

MI Cape Town

After getting a massive win against the defending champions SunRisers Eastern Cape in the first game this season, MI Cape Town would be riding high on confidence as Rashid Khan's team would want to forget the ghosts of the first two seasons. The Cape Town-based side rocked the SunRisers team as they cleaned them up for 77 after putting up 174 on the board.

Delano Potgieter turned out to be the superstar, firstly with the bat by scoring 25 off 12 balls, then bowling a marvellous spell of 5 wickets for just 10 runs.

JSK vs MICT: Weather And Pitch Report

Weather

The weather in Joburg on Saturday is expected to be rainy, with chances expected to be as high as 75% around 5 PM. The temperature is slated to be between 24 and 18 degrees throughout the day. The previous few days haven't been encouraging enough, with the weather being quite wet.

Pitch Report

The pitch at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg is expected to be fast and bouncy, with bowling moving around due to overcast conditions. Ball generally moves a lot quicker in the air and travels farther due to the high altitude in Joburg. Moreover, the outfield is pretty fast as well. Pacers would have a gala time here, with spinners having a much smaller margin of error. Batters will find it easy to play their shots once the pitch settles down after the initial burst.

JSK vs MICT: Fantasy Cricket Tips

Pacers will be having a good time here, so Trent Boult and Matheesha Pathirana would be key at this venue. Joburg batters Faf du Plessis and Leus du Plooy have done exceptionally well at the Wanderers and are key to gathering points in the fantasy team.

Cape Town's Delano Potgieter is a must-pick due to his all-around abilities on display with both bat and ball, while Azmatullah Omarzai and Dewald Brevis should be in the side at any cost. All-rounders are crucial here with big-hitters having a massive advantage as well. Someone like Potgieter is an excellent choice for the captain.

JSK vs MICT: Winner Prediction

These quality sides have an abundance of talent in their ranks, and it would not be a surprise that the match goes into the final over, as has been the case between these two sides. Given the home advantage, it is likely that Joburg Super Kings would be more comfortable here and, hence, are likely to pass this challenge.
