Dolphins Team News & Playing 11
The Dolphins will need one of their top-order batsmen to score big if they are to win against the Cobras and Sarel Erwee fits the bill as he had blitzed an unbeaten century in the reverse fixture. Khaya Zondo scored 67 not-out in that game and he too is expected to do well here. In Imran Tahir, Andile Phehlukwayo and Keshav Maharaj, the Dolphins boast a formidable bowling attack. Tahir had an ordinary outing against the Lions and he will be raring to bounce back and get some wickets under his belt.

Cape Cobras Team News & Playing 11
Hashim Amla and JP Duminy have hit form at the right time for the Cobras and the team's batting is going to rely mainly on them. Temba Bavuma and George Linde too had good knocks against the Warriors in the last game and the team will want them to take some pressure off of Amla and Duminy. Rory Kleinveldt has been the pick of the bowlers with six wickets in four matches and he will be a threat for the Dolphins along with Dane Paterson who picked up three scalps last time.

Dolphins vs Cobras Betting Odds
Cape Cobras are placed second on the points table with three wins and as many defeats in six matches. They are coming off three successive wins and so will be bringing momentum with them into this game which could be the reason why they are the favorites amongst the bookmakers to win at a 1.80 price on Bet365. The Dolphins are second to bottom in the league standings with one win and a loss in five matches. Bet365 has set them slightly higher at odds of 2 to win this match.
Dolphins vs Cobras Prediction
Though the Cobras have wins in their last three games, the Dolphins will have an upper hand on Friday as they have beaten the former three times in their previous four completed meetings. They won both their fixtures against the Cobras in 2015 and defeated them in the rain-truncated second match of this season. The Dolphins are playing on their home ground and we feel they have a better chance of winning here.
Final Verdict: Back the Dolphins to beat the Cobras at 2 on Bet365.
