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.
MICT vs JSK, SA20 2025 Preview
The MI Cape Town, under the leadership of Rashid Khan, have registered two wins and two defeats from four matches to accumulate nine points. One of those two defeats occurred against the Super Kings earlier in the tournament by DLS method in a rain-marred game. At the moment, the MI Cape Town’s NRR reads 1.630 . The batting line-up of the MI Cape Town has primarily revolved around the blistering form of Rassie van der Dussen. Apart from the lanky South African, Delano Potgieter is the only other player to have listed over 100 runs for them this season. With the ball, Potgieter himself has claimed the highest number of wickets among all bowlers off late.
The Joburg Super Kings continues to remain the only unbeaten team of the SA20 2025 season so far. Under the leadership of Faf du Plessis, the Super Kings franchise has registered two wins, and underwent a no-result to hold a formidable NRR of 1.079. Batting, however, seems to be a primary area of concern for the team, as no batter has managed to tally over 100 runs this season yet. The bowling department seems to be comfortably helmed by spinners Donovan Ferreira and Tabraiz Shamsi. David Wiese’s all-round abilities will also come in handy for the Super Kings as they aim to sustain their winning momentum.
