Dolphins Team News & Playing 11
Their batting strength resides mainly in Morne van Wyk, Sarel Erwee and skipper Khaya Zondo. Erwee's audacious 58-ball 103 and Zondo's 34-ball 67 powered the Dolphins to pile up a mammoth 231 against Cape Cobras in their first game. Andile Phehlukwayo and Robbie Frylinck who was the pick of the bowlers are going to be the key men in the team's pace attack. Keshav Maharaj was equally impressive in that game and the spinner is expected to do well again.

Knights Team News & Playing 11
The team will look to their two in-form batsmen David Miller and skipper Theunis de Bruyn to deliver the goods with the bat against the Dolphins. de Bruyn has looked quite comfortable at the crease in both the games and the opposition will want to get rid of him as early as possible. Marchant de Lange and Shadley van Schalkwyk have taken three and four wickets respectively from two matches and it will be up to these two fast bowlers to apply pressure on the Dolphins. Eddie Leie will also have a major role to play here with his legbreaks.

Dolphins vs Knights Betting Odds
Dolphins were simply outstanding with the bat in their first game against Cape Cobras where two brilliant knocks took them to 231. Bowling though is an area where they will need to work on some more. The Knights have played two league matches so far out of which they have won one and lost one. While Bet365 has Dolphins as favorites to win this game at odds of 1.80, the Knights are the underdogs at 2. Both teams are currently priced at 1.42 each on Betfair.
Dolphins vs Knights Prediction
Both teams are evenly matched on paper. However, the Knights after losing to Titans in their last match will feel a bit more pressure. Plus, the Dolphins have beaten the Knights five times in their previous eight encounters as well as twice in their last three encounters at this venue. So this is going to make them even more confident ahead of this game. The Dolphins are playing on their home ground and we feel they are slightly better placed to emerge victorious here.
Final Verdict: Back Dolphins to beat the Knights at 1.42 on 1xbet and 1.80 on Bet365.
