DSG vs PC Team Previews
Durban Super Giants
Durban's Super Giants were one of the teams that seemed to be a bit imbalanced before the start of SA 20, however, they have managed to maximize their resources quite well. DSG has already seen some brilliant batting from Quinton de Kock, Heinrich Klaasen, Kyle Mayers, and Wiaan Mulder.
Their lower-order players have also come in and scored with a lot of intent which has meant high strike-rates throughout the batting order. This is the modern and positive way to play T20 cricket, something that their opponents in this match are also going to be looking at.
DSG does not have great batting depth, though, and losing early wickets could be disastrous.
Quinton de Kock has been very flexible about the way he uses his bowlers. He has tried to get one cheap over from Mayers at the start of the inning when there is swing on offer and often brings his spinners in the powerplay. Prenalan Subrayen has also been used in the death to nail his slow yorkers!
Reece Topley is the leader of this bowling attack and someone who could make a big difference in this match as well.
Durban Super Giants Playing 11
Kyle Mayers, Wiaan Mulder, Quinton de Kock, Dwaine Pretorius, Heinrich Klaasen, Jason Holder, Christiaan Jonker, Keshav Maharaj, Hardus Viljoen, Prenelan Subrayen, Reece Topley.
Pretoria Capitals
The Pretoria Capitals have been a cut above all the other teams in SA 20 so far. They have taken an ultra-aggressive approach with the bat thanks to Phil Salt and Will Jacks blazing away. They have also got a strong bowling attack with genuine pace and world-class wrist-spin.
The tricky part is their middle-order which has not quite performed as the team may have hoped and something that the opposition will be well aware of.
Rilee Rossouw has had a quiet start to SA 20 2023 with just 35 runs in four innings. He is a senior South African international cricketer and the Pretoria Capitals need a lot more from him. Theunis de Bruyne, Jimmy Neesham, and Shane Dadswell are all dangerous players with all-rounders like Wayne Parnell and Ethan Bosch to follow but the ability to really make a big score is perhaps only with Rilee Rossouw.
Anrich Nortje stands head and shoulders above the rest in terms of bowling success. He has 8 wickets, the best bowling average, and the best economy rate for the Pretoria Capitals right now. It is easy to say that Nortje is going to be the key bowler for the Pretoria Capitals in the next match as well.
The Pretoria Capitals may not have the big individual names that some other teams boast of but as a unit, they are playing the best T20 cricket in SA 20 so far.

The pitch at Kingsmead has favored the batters in this tournament so far. Both the matches played there have seen well over 350 runs scored and the same may be the case in this match.
A lot of fours and sixes are on offer but bowlers with genuine pace can use the bounce on offer as well.
DSG vs PC Betting Tips
We are going to stick with Pretoria Capitals in this match. We think they have played better T20 cricket than most other teams in SA 20 so far. They have a very aggressive batting lineup that should be able to take advantage of the batting conditions and a world-class bowling attack that is great at picking up wickets at regular intervals.
Bet on the Pretoria Captals to win.
