Toss

The team that wins the toss is recommended to bowl first as this is not a high scoring ground, and the bowlers can round up the opponent team with ease early on in the game to limit the score and put more pressure.

Cape Cobras Team News & Playing 11

Team News

No injuries to any of the players in the Cape Cobras squad has been reported by the team and no big changes are expected in the match against the Lions.

Key Players

The batting side has been doing well but there is a lack of consistency among the players. Richard Levi scored well in the last 2 matches and will hopefully continue the form. Keegan Peterson, Wayne Parnell, and Kieron Pollard have been putting up runs and will have to work collectively to score a big innings for the team. The bowling side has also not shown any extraordinary performance but will have to push themselves hard in order to reach the final. Dane Paterson, Rory Kleinveldt, Jason Smith and George Linde are the players the team can expect to take important wickets to beat the Lions. Wayne Parnell gave a brilliant bowling performance in the recent match against the Knights and could be the key if he repeats it.

Recent Form

The Cape Cobras have not won a lot of games but certainly have the potential to enter the qualifier. Their batting and bowling sides need to work hard and together to win against the Lions.

Cape Cobras Predicted XI

  • Richard Levi, Wayne Parnell, Kieron Pollard (c), JP Duminy, Cebo Tshiki, Dane Vilas (wk), Aviwe Mgijima, Rory Kleinveldt, George Linde, Dane Paterson, NM Serame.

Lions Team News & Playing 11

Team News

The Lions are doing fairly well with the current squad and no major changes or injuries have been reported by the team.

Key Players

Rassie van der Dussen and Mangaliso Mosehle are the two batsmen on whom the team will be putting their expectations on to score big runs. The Lions have a decent batting side and is capable of scoring a big innings. Other players who can contribute are Reeza Hendricks and Nicky van den Bergh. The bowling side will look up to Hardus Viljoen to take charge and carry on his excellent form to grab as many wickets as he can. Bjorn Fortuin and Eddie Leie have also bowled well in this series and can help in limiting the score of the Cape Cobras. 

Recent Form

The Lions have performed well in the series and have the full capability to reach the final if they utilise their players correctly. The bowlers will need to take charge of their strengths and use them against the Cape Cobras.

Lions Predicted XI

  • Rassie van der Dussen, Reeza Hendricks, Dwaine Pretorius, Mangaliso Mosehle (wk), Temba Bavuma, Nicky van den Bergh, Bjorn Fortuin, Aaron Phangiso (c), Hardus Viljoen, McGillivray, Eddie Leie.

 

Cape Cobras vs Lions Head To Head

The Cape Cobras have played against the Lions once in this season before and the Lions won that match by D/L method. Both teams gave a decent performance and a fair score of 165 was put up on the board by the Lions to chase. It will be interesting to see who wins this time.

Cape Cobras vs Lions Prediction

Both teams are close to getting to the qualifier and will obviously be trying really hard to win this match, but the Lions have an edge over the Cape Cobras because of a better bowling side. The batsmen for both teams have an equal pressure to perform, but the team that bowls better is most likely to win.

The Lions have a better bowling side and can perform well as a team overall against the Cape Cobras and we predict them to win the match.
