Durban’s Super Giants (DSG) will host Joburg Super Kings (JSK) in match number eight of the SA20 2025 season at the Kingsmead Cricket Ground in Durban on Tuesday, January 14. One of the two planned SA20 fixtures of the day, the match is slated to commence from 9:00 PM IST onwards.
Ahead of this game, here is a look at the Dream11 predictions, the fantasy cricket tips, the pitch report and the best predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
DSG vs JSK, SA20 2025 Preview
Durban’s Super Giants escaped with a two-run win against Pretoria Capitals in a high-scoring thriller earlier this SA20 2025 season. Their planned fixture against the same opponents next-up at Centurion was washed away due to rains. Led by Keshav Maharaj, the franchise is currently holding an NRR of 0.100.
For the Super Giants, senior man Kane Williamson and opening batter Bryce Parsons seem to be in good nick with the bat off late, considering both cricketers unleashed match-winning knocks a few days ago. With the ball, Afghanistan spinner Noor Ahmad and English paceman Chris Woakes picked up crucial wickets against Capitals to set up Super Giants’ thrilling last-ball win.
The Joburg Super Kings, led by legendary South African batter Faf du Plessis, defeated MI Cape Town to launch their SA20 2025 campaign on an emphatic note. The win also granted them a healthy NRR of 0.522. Captain Faf and number three Leus du Plooy scored handy runs on a tricky Johannesburg surface to chase down their target. Earlier in the game, Super Kings bowlers David Wiese, Evan Jones and Tabraiz Shamsi bowled economical and wicket-taking spells to restrict MI Cape Town to a moderate total.
