PR vs JSK, Eliminator: Pitch Report
The wicket at the Wanderers have been very sporty. While in some games it has favoured the batters, in others the bowlers have dominated the proceedings. While we have seen 200 plus totals here in three innings there has been an instance where the 100-mark was not breached. So, there will be help for players of all trades and a fierce competition between the bat and the ball can be expected.

PR vs JSK, Eliminator: Top Player Picks
Jos Buttler (PR)
- SA20 2024 Records: 398 Runs in 10 Innings
- Jos Buttler has been in the man in form with the bat for the Royals. He has carried the team with the bat in most of the matches and will be a key pick for this game.
Lungi Ngidi (PR)
- SA20 2024 Records: 13 Wickets in 9 Innings
- While Buttler has been the main man for the Royals with the bat, Ngidi has been their prime wicket-taker. Ngidi's wicket-taking form in the tournament makes him a prime choice for the fantasy contests of the match.
Faf du Plessis (JSK)
- SA20 2024 Records: 181 Runs in 9 Innings
- The South African legend has not been in the best of forms in the tournament. Yet, he will be a prime pick for the fantasy contests of the match. This is because in the two games, where, JSK chased down a big target, Du Plessis was their prime man. So, for JSK to perform well, Du Plessis needs to perform.
Lizaad Williams (JSK)
- SA20 2024: 15 Wickets in 8 Innings
- Lizaad Williams has been the prime wicket-taker for the Super Kings. Keeping him the fantasy teams will guarantee you some points in the contests.
