Pretoria Capitals Team News & Playing 11
PRE Team News
At the top of the order, Will Jacks will be missed by Pretoria Capitals. The England international is playing with the England Lions in Sri Lanka and has been replaced by the experienced Colin Ingram. We expect Phil Salt to return to the team at the top of the order in this clash.
PRE Key Players
- Phil Salt- the English keeper-batter missed the last game against MI Cape Town but has been scoring runs at an impressive strike-rate of 167.36.
- Wayne Parnell- the skipper troubles batters with his pace and left-arm angle. He took 3-14 in the last match against MI Cape Town and is in strong form in the SA20.
- Anrich Nortje- the South African international has picked up 13 wickets so far in the competition and is one dismissal away from being the leading wicket taker across all teams.
PRE Team Form
The Capitals have lost only two matches across the tournament and have won three of the last four.

MI Cape Town Team News & Playing 11
CT Team News
As expected, Tim David came in for his first MI Cape Town appearance on Thursday as a replacement for Liam Livingstone. Henry Brookes is in the squad in place of Olly Stone but we do not expect him to make the XI for this match.
CT Key Players
- Rassie van der Dussen- the top order batter is a very consistent player across all formats. He hit a century against England in the first ODI and rarely throws his wicket away.
- Tim David- on his debut for MI Cape Town, the Australian international hit three sixes in his 33 runs from 26 balls against Durban Super Giants.
- Kagiso Rabada- the right-arm pace bowler dismissed Heinrich Klaasen, Wiaan Mulder and Keemo Paul on Thursday and is always a wicket taking threat.
CT Team Form
MI Cape Town have lost five of their last seven matches in the tournament and are looking to avoid their third successive defeat.
MI Cape Town Predicted Playing 11
Dewald Brevis, Grant Roelofsen (wk), Rassie van der Dussen, George Linde, Tim David, Odean Smith, Delano Potgieter, Duan Jansen, Rashid Khan (c), Beuran Hendricks, Kagiso Rabada

Who will win Pretoria Capitals vs MI Cape Town T20 Match?
The absence of Will Jacks in the Pretoria Capitals batting line-up certainly weakens the side. However, they have plenty of other white ball expert run scorers in the XI.
