Pretoria Capitals is the favorite to win this match.
The level of the batters on both teams is the highest in one game thus far in the competition, therefore it will be well worth watching this game. We anticipate a high-scoring game and may perhaps see one or two players reach 100 points. We believe the Capitals will be too strong for the Super Giants, who will be keen to win in front of their home crowd. Overall, we are betting on the Pretoria Capitals to win again.
