TEAMS PREVIEW

Warriors Preview

Warriors were bundled out for just 68 runs in the last game. Jordan Hermann (24 runs) and Mathew Breetzke (27 runs) brought some respectability to their total as the all other batters fell for single digit scores (seven players were dismissed for ducks). Their top order trio of Wihan Lubbe, L Ngoepa, and Diego Rosier need to step up in this match.

T Ndwandawa and B Swanepoel took 5 wickets between them and gave runs at less than 7 RPO. Glunton Stuurman (3 wickets) and Ziyaad Abrahams (4 wickets) were taken for a lot of runs giving runs at over 7 RPO in this series. Their bowling unit needs to step up in this match and help their tam post a big score.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Potchefstroom has dark and cloudy weather with 60% chances of rain on the match day. Rain might come in to trouble the teams in this match and bring DLS equation into consideration.  

Venue Details

Senwes Park will have good pace and carry for the seamers and batters will enjoy playing on this surface. The pitch will be a nightmare for the bowlers. We expect average scores to be around 160-170 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bowl

The pitch is good to bat on and no target is safe here so we expect both captains to chase the total if they win the toss. Rain threat might also come into their minds while at the toss.
