Playing XI Updates:
Dolphins:
No changes are expected for the Dolphins who are fairly settled in both the batting and bowling departments. Andile Phehlukwayo has been the star of the show with 155 runs and 5 wickets to his name in three games and will once again be the key to their fortunes.
He has been ably backed by David Miller and Imran Tahir as well, indicating the fact that they are more than just a one-man army. Keshav Maharaj could return for the Dolphins now that he is back from national duty.
Possible XI: van Jaarsveld, van Wyk, Vilas(WK), Miller, Zondo (C), Phehlukwayo, Muthusamy, Maharaj/Savage, Tahir, Shezi and Subrayen.
Warriors:
After a close win in the previous match, not many changes are expected from the Warriors. Anrich Nortje's brilliant performances have been rewarded with a national call-up and he will want to sign off on a high before he leaves for the Sri Lanka ODI series.
Jon-Jon Smuts' presence in the middle order and as the fifth bowling option adds a sense of balance to a formidable Warriors side.
Possible XI: Cloete(WK), Breetzke, Ngoepe, Vallie, Smuts(C), Qeshile, Jonker, Magala, Birch, Nortje and Sipalma.

Fantasy Tips and Suggestions:
Wicket-keeper: Both Qeshile and Dane Vilas are viable options to have in the fantasy side. Vilas has been in great form and could get the nod over Qeshile although he isn't a bad option at all.
Batsmen: David Miller and Morne van Wyk are must-have players in the side while Gihahn Cloete's form is too good to ignore. Cloete has scored over 150 runs so far and should be backed to score more runs on Tuesday. The likes of Zondo and Breetzke are also handy options to have in the side
All-rounders: Jon-Jon Smuts and Andile Phehlukwayo are the ideal players to have in the side with their all-round abilities. Both of them have contributed with bat and ball in all three games, rendering them as key selections in your fantasy team.
Bowlers: Anrich Nortje and Imran Tahir are great options to have in the side with both of them in good wicket-taking form. One of Lutho Sipalma or Andrew Birch would also prove to be a handy option while Mthokozisi Shezi's decent form should also hold him in good stead.
Captain: Andile Phehlukwayo has put in match-defining performances in two out of three games so far and is one of the front-runners for the mantle of captain along with the likes of Gihahn Cloete and Jon-Jon Smuts. David Miller is also due for a big score, making him an outside shot.
