Rocks Team News & Playing 11
PR Team News
Paarl Rocks will continue to be led by Henry Davids as Faf du Plessis will not be available before the team's Sunday's encounter against Cape Town Blitz. Left-arm chinaman Tabraiz Shamsi is free from international duty and he is expected to replace left-arm spinner Bjorn Fortuin in the playing eleven for this match.
PR Key Players
Cameron Delport starred with the bat for Paarl Rocks in the opening encounter against Tshwane Spartans. The opener smashed 73 runs off 43 balls and the team will be hoping for a similar performance from him against the Jozi Stars. His partner Michael Klinger has a half-century in the three T20Is he has played for Australia and he too is a key man in this line-up. Dwayne Bravo's knock will be vital in the middle order and he is also a big threat with the ball as well. The West Indian all-rounder claimed a three-wicket haul against the Spartans and he is likely to grab the best bowling figures once again. Dane Paterson notched up a couple of wickets and he will look to strike early with the new ball. Tabraiz Shamsi is coming off a good T20I outing in Australia and he will be the go-to spinner for the Rocks.
PR Recent Form
Paarl Rocks have made a losing start to their MSL 2018 campaign as they went down to Tshwane Spartans in a home game that went all the way down to the wire. After winning the toss, they put the Spartans into bat who posted 203/5 in their 20 overs. The Rocks then put up a good chase but fell short by just one run in the end.

Jozi Stars Team News & Playing 11
JS Team News
Although Jozi Stars ended up losing to Nelson Mandela Bay Giants in their campaign opener, they put up a pretty good fight and so we don't expect them to make any changes to their side for this upcoming match. Ryan Rickelton is likely to open the batting once again alongside Chris Gayle.
JS Key Players
Jozi Stars will be counting on the likes of Chris Gayle, Dane Vilas and Rassie van der Dussen to score runs for them at the top. Gayle looked promising in his short stay at the crease and he will be expected to get a big one this time. Skipper Vilas struck an unbeaten 38 and he will look to continue his good form. Daniel Christian, with his hard-hitting ability, is an important figure in the middle order. The Australian all-rounder leaked too many runs last time and it will be crucial for the Stars that he bowls well as their bowling relies heavily on him. Beuran Hendricks and Eddie Leie both bagged a couple of wickets at Johannesburg. The former was the pick of the bowlers with outstanding figures of 2-13 from four overs and the left-arm pacer will be backed by his team for another strong showing here.
JS Recent Form
Jozi Stars suffered a five-wicket defeat at the hands of Nelson Mandela Bay Giants in their opening encounter of the Mzansi Super League 2018. Their batsmen let them down in that game as a middle-order collapse saw them post a meager total of 124/7 on the board. The Stars did a good job with the ball though as they did not allow the Giants to run away and took the game till the 18th over.
Jozi Stars Predicted Playing 11
Chris Gayle, Ryan Rickelton, Rassie van der Dussen, Dane Vilas (c/wk), Petrus van Biljon, Daniel Christian, Calvin Savage, Nono Pongolo, Duanne Olivier, Eddie Leie, Beuran Hendricks
Rocks vs Jozi Stars Betting Odds
Jozi Stars begin as favorites amongst the bookmakers to win this fifth match of the Mzansi Super League 2018. They are being offered at odds of 1.67 on Betfair. Paarl Rocks find themselves as underdogs for this game at a slightly higher price of 1.76 on Betfair.
🏆 Rocks vs Jozi Stars Prediction
While Jozi Stars lost their opening encounter by five wickets to Nelson Mandela Bay Giants, Paarl Rocks faced a one-run loss at the hands of Tshwane Spartans. Since both the teams are coming on the back of a defeat, there will be a little bit of pressure on either side. The Rocks, however, have the home advantage in their favor. They just played their last game at this ground on Sunday which means they now have a much better idea of the conditions and the nature of the pitch. The Giants, on the other hand, will be playing their first game here and so they may take more time to adjust to the conditions. Paarl Rocks, therefore, seem to have a slight upper hand here and so we predict them to win this match.
Final Verdict: Back Paarl Rocks to beat Jozi Stars at 1.76 on Betfair.
