MI Cape Town Form
MI Cape Town have won five of their last six completed games and are in superb form with bat and ball.
MI Cape Town piled on 222/3 off their 20 overs against the Pretoria Capitals at Centurion. Reeza Hendricks (77* off 44 balls, five sixes) and Dewald Brevis (73* off 32 balls, six sixes) punished the Capitals bowlers.
The MI Cape Town bowlers did well to restrict their hosts to 195/8 off their 20 overs. Corbin Bosch (2/40) and Rashid Khan (2/25, econ 6.25) bowled superbly to wrap up the win.
MI Cape Town Team News
MI Cape Town are playing like champions and look really hard to beat. The Capitals are unlikely to challenge them given their poor form.
Pretoria Capitals Form
The Capitals have lost four of their last five matches, including their clash with MI Cape Town on the weekend.
On a good pitch the MI Cape Town batters posted a challenging 222/3 off their 20 overs. Will Jacks (0/22, econ 5.50) bowled incredibly while his team-mates all took a pasting.
Will Smeed (52 off 36) and Will Jacks (39 off 22) got the Capitals chase off to a good start. The lower middle-order played their part are batted well but ended on 195/8 off their 20 overs.
Pretoria Capitals Team News
They have picked up just two wins this season, but their wins both brought bonus points. They have the slimmest chance of making the playoffs. They need Joburg Super Kings to lose their last match and then the Capitals must beat MI Cape Town with a bonus point.
Verdict
I am backing MI Cape Town to win. I am also backing Dewald Brevis to top score for MI Cape Town.
Will Smeed is a good bet to top score for the Pretoria Capitals.
