Their middle order then failed to capitalize on the good start as they scored just 50-odd runs in their last 10 overs. They will hope for a much improved performance in this match.

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.
