NMBG vs PLR Match Prediction - Nov 27, 2019

Two of the most impressive sides in the Mzansi Super League 2019 until now are going to be playing this match against each other. The Nelson Mandela Bay Giants are unbeaten so far and are opening up a nice healthy lead for themselves.

The Paarl Rocks are in the second position and that has surprised a few people. The Rocks continue to overcome their weaknesses and are maximizing their resources so far. This is going to be the first time these two teams meet in MSL 2019 and we are really looking forward to this contest.

Nelson Mandela Bay Giants vs Paarl Rocks MSL T20 is going to be played at St. George’s Park, Elizabeth on the 27th of November 2019.

NMBG vs PLR Team Previews

Nelson Mandela Bay Giants

There has been nothing too much wrong about anything that the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants have done so far. They have come hard at the opponents with the ball and chased down some tricky scores with ease.

The top-order of the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants is in good form, especially now that Jason Roy has also got some runs, and the lower-order has the power to help win from challenging positions.

Even in the last game, there was a lot of work to be done by Chris Morris and Heino Kuhn but they never let the pressure get to them and found the boundaries with ease. In the end, the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants won with just one ball to spare.

The Giants will hope their batting form continues in this match as well because the Paarl Rocks are a very good batting unit as well.

We love the way that JJ Smuts is batting and his position at number three makes him the most important cog in this entire franchise.

The batting is supported by a stellar cast of bowlers led by Imran Tahir. The ageless spinner has been economical and in the wickets, as he always seems to be. Nandre Burger, Chris Morris, JJ Smuts, and Junior Dala are all bowling nicely at the moment and so there are very few reasons for the Giants to change up their side ahead of this match.

Paarl Rocks

The Paarl Rocks won their previous match by two runs in a close encounter against Cape Town Blitz. It was not a perfect performance from Paarl Rocks but the fact that they managed to still come out victoriously shows good things about the side.

Henry Davids scored 46 runs at the top of the order while Faf du Plessis, James Vince, and Dwaine Pretorius also got starts. The lack of batting depth stopped the Paarl Rocks from really accelerating towards the end although Mangaliso Mosehle did manage to find the boundary a few times.

For a batting unit that is pretty short on quality down the order, it is imperative that each and every batsman pull his weight in the squad. That is not what Cameron Delport is doing and that has been one of the big disappointments for us so far.

Faf du Plessis and James Vince are the most important batsmen for the Paarl Rocks side so far and one of them needs to get a big score in this match.

The bowling attack for Paarl Rocks has been very good. It is the bowlers that won it the previous match and they have not really had a bad game so far. Tabraiz Shamsi and Bjorn Fortuin have been economical while Dwaine Pretorius is also bowling his full quota of overs in every match.

Shamsi is not afraid to flight the ball and looks for wickets but the fact that he is able to do it with so much control is a new development.

Isuru Udana and Hardus Viljoen have had a couple of poor games but they should bounce back sooner rather than later too.

The pitch at St, George’s Park has been very good for batting so far and the same will be the case for this match. A score of around 170 is what we think is par for the venue.
