MICT Team News
After their rain-shortened game with Joburg Super Kings on Monday, no injuries have been reported by MI Cape Town. Their bowlers were unable to stem the runs across the 5.4 overs of that match but we are not expecting any changes to the attack for this game.
MICT Key Players
- Ryan Rickleton - The 27 year old keeper-batter hit a four and a six in his 16-ball 23 against the Super Kings. The left-hander has impressed with his strike-rates throughout this tournament.
- Kieron Pollard - The captain scored 33 not out from only 10 balls in the last match and he has now got into the thirties in each of his last two innings.
- Thomas Kaber - The left-arm wrist spinner will be keen to get into the action early in this game and will relish the attacking nature of Pretoria Capitals’ opening batters.
- Kagiso Rabada - The right-arm fast bowler will be looking forward to bowling at the Wanderers Stadium and he will be targeting his eighth four-wicket haul in T20 cricket.
MICT Team Form
MI Cape Town have lost four games in a row and have not won a match in the SA20 since Match 11.
