PRETORIA CAPITALS
The Pretoria Capitals are in 5th place overall after 8 matches and they currently sit just 1 point behind the Joburg Super Kings on the log. They will look to put in some dominant performances to qualify for the knockouts.

Pretoria Capitals 2.40
MI Cape Town 1.62
Suggested Bet: Rassie van der Dussen to Score 50+ – Yes at 3.25
Van der Dussen has been on form with bat in hand this season and he is the second highest run scorer after 8 innings played. I think he will be determined to put in a big innings and hit the top of the run scorers list after their game on Friday.
Suggested Bet: Player to Score Most Sixes (Pretoria Capitals) – Will Jacks at 3.80
Jacks is a batsman who dispatches multiple balls for six when he has his eye in. Despite not being at his best this season he has hit the 4th most sixes in the competition (11) and he has a 1:1 ration of sixes and fours.
