Port Elizabeth will have a cloudy weather on the match day with just 10% chances of precipitation. We expect a full match with no weather interruptions.

Venue Details

Port Elizabeth is expected to have a good sporting track with some assistance for both batters and bowlers. Batters will enjoy the true bounce on this track and score freely once they are set. We expect the average scores to be around 160-170 runs on this pitch.

Toss: To Bowl

Chasing is the best option when we are unsure of the pitch conditions and on flat pitches that are known to aid the batters in the T20 cricket.

Both teams come into this match with a fresh team and rejuvenated energy for the new season. Dolphins has experienced batters in the middle order and bowling department when compared to Knights and which will give a big edge in the crucial situations. They also have been one of the consistent performers in the league phase in the last 6-7 years and are unlucky to miss out on trophies many time. We expect Dolphins to win this match and start the campaign with a victory.

DOLPHINS will win the match.
