JSK vs MICT T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, SA20 2024
Match 4 of the 2024 SA20 tournament takes place at The Wanderers Stadium as Joburg Super Kings take on MI Cape Town on Saturday afternoon. The Super Kings’ opening game ended as a no-result without any balls bowled but MI Cape Town were beaten by 11 runs (DLS) by Durban’s Super Giants. Read on as we preview the match. This game gets underway in Johannesburg at 13:30 local time.
Joburg Super Kings will be raring to go in this game after the lack of cricket in their opening fixture. In front of their home fans and with a star-studded line-up, we expect them to be very competitive in this match.
After hitting 207/5 in the first innings of the match against Durban’s Super Giants, MI Cape Town will still be wondering quite how they managed to lose by 11 runs (DLS). However, confidence will still be high in the group ahead of this game.
