The second game of doubleheader Saturday will see Joburg Super Kings (JSK) lock horns against Pretoria Capitals (PRC) in the Wanderers, Joburg. The enthralling action is slated to begin at 9:00 PM IST.

The Super Kings have had a torrid time in the tournament and are languishing at the bottom of the table. They're yet to win a game after the competition's curtain raiser was abandoned due to rain. Meanwhile, the Capitals are at the bottom half of the points table as well. But the Sourav Ganguly-mentored community have found a way to come up the ranks with a must-needed win against the Durban Super Giants in their latest game.

JSK vs PRC, Match 13- Toss Factor

The Wanderers, Johannesburg has been good for the batters so far in the tournament. The ball tends to come at the bat during the first half of the contests. However, as the game progresses, the surface gets tacky and the pacers and spinners get to exploit the opposition. The same happened during the recent SA20 clash between MICT and JSK and during India vs South Africa series.

Scenario: If Joburg Super Kings field first

The JSK have a good bowling unit but it's their batters who haven't been clicking well altogether. The likes of Nandre Burger, Imran Tahir, Lizaad Williams, Gerald Coetzee, etc have the ability to restrict the opposition in a below par total. However, their batters need to come up with their A-game to help achieve their goals.

Scenario: If Pretoria Capitals field first

The Capitals have won their only match in the tournament by defending the total. But it was a good challenge for their bowlers and now that they have gained some boost, the team should come well and chase totals. They have match-winners like Will Jacks, Rilee Rossouw, Colin Ingram, etc - who can turn the table on their own abilities when needed.


JSK vs PRC, Match 13 - Top Captain and Vice-captain Choices

Scenario: If Joburg Super Kings field first

Will Jacks(PRC): The English all-rounder is a clean striker of the cricket ball. He has the ability to mix caution with aggression through his batting. Jacks smoked a century in their last game against the Super Giants and can also be more than handy with the ball in hand as he already bagged a couple of scalps in the last game.

Leus du Plooy(JSK): The elegant middle order batter was Super Kings’ last fighting sheep of the flock in their latest game. Du Plooy has a wide range of strokes in his armoury and can quickly switch gears after getting settled. His fifty almost dragged a win for the yellow army in the last game.


Scenario: If Pretoria Capitals field first

Lizaad Williams(JSK): The pace bowler has bagged six wickets from three innings so far for the home side. He has good control over his line and length and gets to move the ball away off the pitch, thereby creating further pressure on the batters. Williams will be key for the Super Kings and will look to continue with his fine form.

Jimmy Neesham (PRC): The New Zealand all-rounder has been a bits and pieces cricketer for the franchise so far. He has managed to contribute towards the team's goals either with the bat or with the ball in hand. Neesham has claimed a wicket each in every game and added some quick fire lower down the order.


JSK vs PRC, Match 13- High Risk, High Regards

Faf du Plessis (JSK): The former CSK star would look to lead the team from the front not by his stupendous fielding efforts but also with the bat. Faf is due of a big knock in the ongoing SA20 and it could come soon.

Rilee Rossouw (PRC): The Proteas left-handed batter is one of the best swashbucklers in the mega-event. But he has the tendency to lack consistency and that often leads to misery. However, if he gets going, he can destroy the opposition any day.
