These sides are the outsiders to win the tournament with the Capitals 10/1 and the Super Kings 12/1.
PRETORIA CAPITALS
In the Pretoria Capitals most recent match against the Sunrisers, they lost the toss and were sent into bat first. A challenging start saw them lose two wickets before the third over, resulting in a slow scoring rate in the early stages. Despite the difficulties, a decent partnership between Dadswell and Neesham kept the Capitals somewhat in the game, allowing them to post a total of 125 runs before being bowled out in the 19th over.
The Capitals managed to bounce back into contention with two early wickets, as the Sunrisers were only on 10 runs when the second wicket fell. Although the Sunrisers gained some momentum, it was quickly halted by both Rashid and Parnell, who each took three wickets. This brought the game down to the last ball, where the Capitals emerged victorious, restricting the Sunrisers to a total of 122 runs. This win marked Pretoria’s second victory of the tournament, propelling them to fifth place on the table and giving their fans hope of a playoff spot.
JOBURG SUPER KINGS
In their most recent match against the Paarl Royals, the Super Kings lost the toss and were put into bat. The Super Kings came out strongly, with Hendricks delivering an impressive opening performance, scoring 79 runs. His contribution was significant to the team’s total of 168 runs, with only three wickets lost in the process.
The Super Kings faced challenges in the early stages of their bowling innings as the Royals set up the chase at speed. Moeen Ali was the standout performer for the Super Kings, being the only player to take more than one wicket. The Royals always had the upper hand and successfully chased the target of 168 runs in 19 overs, losing only 5 wickets. This defeat marked the Super Kings fourth loss of the tournament, placing them at the bottom of the table.
HEAD TO HEAD
In the last clash between these two sides, which took place last Saturday, the Super Kings managed to secure a 6-wicket victory in front of their home crowd.

Pretoria Capitals 5/6
Joburg Super Kings 19/20
Suggested Bet: Reeza Hendricks to score more than 23.5 runs at 17/20
After an impressive 79-run performance signalled a welcome return to form, Hendricks looks worth following as he is a streaky player who when he finds his touch often puts a string of good knocks together.

Suggested Bet: Pretoria Capitals to win at 5/6
Despite losing their last clash against the Super Kings, the combination of the home ground advantage and the Capitals coming off the back of a win should give them the edge over the Super Kings this weekend.
