TEAMS PREVIEW
Dolphins Preview
After what has been a largely disappointing and at some times embarrassing campaign for Dolphins this season, their last match, up against Boland in a day-nighter on Tuesday, turned out to be another very poor showing.
Batting first after winning the toss, Marques Ackerman's side could only post 109, with only four players, including the timeless Imran Tahir at number ten, hitting double-figures.
In this game, Ackerman, along with openers Tshepany Dithole and JJ Smuts, must step up.
Bowling wise, Tahir was the only member of the attack to pick up a wicket on Tuesday while Smuts will be expected to bowl with control and to keep the run-rate down.
Dolphins Predicted Playing XI:
Tshepang Dithole, JJ Smuts, Edward Moore, Marques Ackerman (c), Romashan Pillay, Hanu Viljoen (wk), Gomolemo Phiri, Aryan Gopalan, Tristan Luus, Imran Tahir, Bayanda Majola

Western Province Preview
Back in action for the first time since Thursday's no-result in Potchefstroom, Western Province will be looking for a stronger showing, particularly with the ball in this day-game.
North West were able to post 270/6, a total which Western Province will certainly expect to restrict Dolphins to less than on Sunday, although the experienced Dane Paterson and Mbulelo Dube both picked up two wicekts each.
Batting wise, there will be hunger in the Western Province squad after they only faced 4.4 overs in their last game.
With Kyle Verreynne at four and skipper Daniel Smith at five, there is a powerful middle order in this side and the openers, Jiveshan Pillay and Valentine Kitime, should be able to play with freedom.
Western Province Predicted Playing XI:
Jiveshan Pillay, Valentine Kitime, Joshua van Heerden, Kyle Verreynne (wk), Daniel Smith (c), Juan James, Mihlali Mpongwana, Oliver Whitehead, Josh Breed, Mbulelo Dube, Dane Paterson

Minimal Turn
The surface at Kingsmead normally gets faster when the sun burns down on it! Therefore, we predict that a par total in this game will be around 330+ in the first innings.
Toss: To Bowl
Following Dolphins' poor batting display in their last game, we imagine both teams will be keen to make the other bat first in this clash. Therefore, our prediction is for the teams to choose to bowl if they win the toss.
DOL vs WPR
Winning Prediction
Neither team has covered themselves in glory across this campaign although Western Province have been in far stronger form that Dolphins over recent weeks. Therefore, it is Western Province who we expect to come out on top.
We are backing Western Province to win!
