Johor heads into this contest on the back of a six-wicket win over Pahang in their last match, where they chased down 128 runs in just 11 overs to secure a spot in the Super Six. Shamsul Ikmal was named Player of the Match for his magnificent spell of 4/25.
In the batting department, Hasan Masood continued his good run of form, scoring 34 runs off 22 balls, which included four fours and two sixes. Their skipper, Muhamad Syahadat, also contributed with a quickfire knock of 48 runs off just 20 balls.
Hasan Masood has been in fine form throughout the group stages, scoring 202 runs in four matches at an average of 101 and a strike rate of 162.90, making him the leading run-scorer for his team. In the bowling department, Muhammad Amir Azim and Muhamad Syahadat are the top bowlers, with six wickets each.

Despite their 100-run loss to the Perak side in their last match, Penang has still qualified for the Super Six stage, as the teams below them, Sarawak and Putrajaya, have only secured one win each.
In the group stages, Penang managed to win two matches: one against a strong Kuala Lumpur side by 7 runs and another against Sarawak by 6 wickets. Their single loss came by a narrow margin of one wicket against Putrajaya.
Peter Isaac has been commendable with both bat and ball for the Penang side. He has scored 110 runs in four matches, averaging 27.50, and has taken 10 wickets at an impressive economy rate of 5.44. Vishvaruben Kumar has also stepped up, claiming 8 wickets. The primary issue for Penang has been the lack of runs from their other batters, and a much-improved performance is expected from them in this fixture.

On Friday, August 8th, Kuala Lumpur is expected to be partly cloudy with a temperature of 32°C. There is a 20% chance of precipitation and humidity will be around 64%. Winds will be light at 8 km/h.
The pitch at the Selangor Turf Club offers a balanced track that favours both the batters and bowlers. The average 1st innings score in the matches played in the MCA Competition at this venue this season is 188 runs.
Teams batting first won six of the last ten T20 matches played at the Selangor Cricket Club, the surface slows down and batting becomes difficult as the game progresses. We predict the team that wins the toss will opt to bat first.
Johor are the favorites to win this match. They have a top-class batting lineup with depth up to number 7, whereas Penang has consistently struggled to score runs. When comparing the form of both teams, Johor is clearly the better side, and we back them to win this fixture.
Johor to Win!
