North West Team News & Playing 11
NWD Team News
Nicky van den Bergh’s side produced a display high on character but low on quality at times on Tuesday. However, it got them over the winning line and they can build on that in this game. More will be needed from the top order batters but we expect to see an unchanged XI.
NWD Key Players
- Wesley Marshall - The opener has hit 6 half-centuries from 34 T20 games. He has been a prolific run scorer in first class cricket over recent years.
- Duan Jansen - Although he is primarily in the team for his bowling ability, he top scored with 32 not out from 18 balls to help North West post a defendable total.
- Johannes Diseko - the left-arm spinner did his work early on in the Lions innings by dismissing both of the top order Hendricks.
NWD Team Form
North West got their campaign off to the best possible start on Tuesday.
North West Predicted Playing 11
Wesley Marshall, Heino Kuhn, Dwaine Pretorius, Nicky van den Bergh (c) (wk), Senuran Muthusamy, Lesego Senokwane, Nono Pongolo, Duan Jansen, Caleb Seleka, Johannes Diseko, Chad Classen
Knights Team News & Playing 11
KTS Team News
The Knights struggled last season and have already got off to a poor start in CSA T20 Challenge 2022. Four of their top five got starts with the bat and it will be up to the same players to post a large score in this game to give their bowlers something to defend. We are not anticipating any changes in the Knights XI.
KTS Key Players
- Raynard van Tonder - the young middle-order batter impressed on Tuesday but must now kick on and post a big score in this game to stamp his authority on the team.
- Pite van Biljon - the skipper hit 25 from 23 balls in a typically disciplined knock. He hit 1 six and will doubtless be one of Knights’ highest run scorers in the tournament again.
- Alfred Mothoa - the experienced right-arm medium fast bowler has been in strong recent form and dismissed Grant Roelofsen
KTS Team Form
Knights have now lost three successive games in the T20 Challenge.

🏆 North West vs Knights Prediction
We are predicting another win for North West and a second successive defeat for Knights in the 2022 CSA T20 Challenge. North West look to be the type of team who will always dig in and find a way to win whereas Knights still have the look from 2021 when they were very uncompetitive.
