MSA vs DG Team Previews
Morrisville Samp Army
The Samp Army is playing its very first season in this league and got off to a flying start by winning each of its first 3 matches. However, its form seems to have faltered a bit as they have lost each of the last 2 matches. With the number 4 spot still wide open, this is a must-win encounter for them.
The batting has been one of the biggest letdowns for the Samp Army, as none of the batsmen except for Johnson Charles and Karim Janat have managed to make a significant impact on the opposition. Janat has also been quite productive with the ball, picking up 3 wickets. Shimron Hetmeyer has been good in patches, while David Miller and Moeen Ali have failed to get big scores.
Dwaine Pretorius has been excellent with the ball and is the second-highest wicket-taker this season. Nortje has given him good support at the other end, but other than these two, none of the bowlers have asked difficult questions to the opposition batsmen.

Deccan Gladiators
The Gladiators have played like true champions throughout the season and are well on track to finish within the top of the points table. The game against the Samp Army will be their last in the group stage, and if they win this one, the Gladiators will have a good chance of remaining at the number 1 spot.
The Gladiators come into this contest on the back of an excellent 10-wicket win over the Bangla Tigers which has given a huge boost to its NRR. Nicholas Pooran and Kohler Cadmore both scored unbeaten half-centuries to take down the 109-run target set by the Tigers in just 6.1 overs.
With that, Pooran and Cadmore are the top two run-getters of this season. Mohammad Hasnain played his first match of the season and was pretty effective, picking up 2 wickets for 12 runs. Joshua Little, David Weise, and Tom Helm have all picked up 5 wickets, while Odean Smith has been a decent all-rounder with 61 runs and 3 wickets against his name.
