SA20 2025: Predicting MI Cape Town’s playing XI for their clash against Durban’s Super Giants

Discover the Predicted MI Cape Town’s playing XI for their showdown against Durban’s Super Giants. The table toppers MI Cape Town will take on the ‘struggling’ and ‘down and out’ Durban’s Super Giants in the 16th game of the ongoing SA20 2025. The game will be played at the Kingsmead in Durban on January 21, 2025. It will be a crucial game for MICT to keep their dominance going in the tournament. 

MI Cape Town are currently placed at the top with three wins and two defeats in their five games, having 14 points to their name. They are coming off a big 7-wicket win against Joburg Super Kings in the last game. A win in this game will help them stay at the top of the table.  With that said, here we’ll have a look at the predicted playing XI of the MI Cape Town in their next clash against Durban’s Super Giants. 

Predicted MI Cape Town’s playing XI in their clash vs Durban’s Super Giants:

Openers:

The in-form opening pair of Rassie van der Dussen and Ryan Rickelton will be opening the innings for MICT in the next game. The duo stitched a blistering opening partnership of 70 runs in just 6.4 overs in the previous game. Van der Dussen scored 39 runs off just 24 balls, with 4 fours and a six. 

Besides him, Rickelton played a match-winning knock of 89 runs off just 39 balls, with eight fours and six sixes. He also won the ‘Player of the Match’ award for his match-defining knock. 

Middle Order:

The middle-order of the MICT starts with the star number three batter Reeza Hendricks, who played a crucial and unbeaten knock of 34 runs off 28 balls, with 4 fours and a six. He will be followed by young number four batter Dewald Brevis. 

Later in the middle-order, Delano Potgieter and Colin Ingram will also be there to provide stability to the batting order. They can add some important runs in the middle overs. 

All-Rounders:

Speaking of the all-rounders, George Linde and Corbin Bosch could be part of MICT’s playing XI in the next game against DSG. They can add value to the team’s motive, both with the bat and the ball. Linde scalped 1 wicket in the last game. 

On the other hand, Bosch also scalped a wicket in his three-over stint, conceding 24 runs. So, Linde and Bosch could be added as two preferred all-rounders in MICT’s playing XI for their game against DSG.

Bowlers:

MI Cape Town have one of the most lethal bowling trio in the ongoing SA20 2025. Their primary bowling attack will include skipper Rashid Khan as a specialist spinner in the playing XI. He will be accompanied by star Proteas pacer Kagiso Rabada, who can trouble the batters with his raw pace. 

Apart from these two, the veteran pacer Trent Boult will be there to give a tough time to the opponent batters with the new ball in the powerplay phase.
