SA20 2023, Match 5, MI Cape Town vs Durban's Super Giants: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details
MI Cape Town and Durban's Super Giants are set to face off in Match No. 5 of the SA20 2023 on Friday, January 13. The match will take place at Newlands in Cape Town.
MI Cape Town, captained by Rashid Khan, got off to a thunderous start in the tournament. In the opening game, they defeated the Paarl Royals by eight wickets. Dewald Brevis, who has already made a name for himself, became the Player of the Match for his unbeaten 70-run knock.
Jofra Archer picked up three wickets and also bowled a maiden, showing that he is pretty fit to play top-level cricket. Rashid Khan couldn’t get a wicket, but that shouldn’t be a matter of concern as he is a world-class operator who can take any opposition down on his day.
The Super Giants, led by Quinton de Kock, on the other hand, had a great chance of beating the Joburg Super Kings in their first match. However, they ended up losing the match by 16 runs at Kingsmead in Durban after failing to chase down a target of 191 in 20 overs.
Quinton de Kock scored 78 and was also involved in a 98-run stand with Kyle Mayers. However, after Donavan Ferreira dismissed him, the Super Giants lost every bit of momentum. Dwaine Pretorius hit a couple of sixes late in the innings, but his valiant effort went in vain.
