On Sunday, February 5, the Pretoria Capitals and Durban’s Super Giants will square off in Match No. 28 of the SA20 2023. The Centurion SuperSport Park will host the match. With 27 points and a net run rate of +1.758, the Capitals, led by Wayne Parnell, are at the top of the table. They are likely to finish in the top two and have already advanced to the playoffs.
The Capitals had to fight hard to beat MI Cape Town by one wicket in their previous match. They got home on the final ball as they chased 160. Rilee Rossouw won the game by scoring 40 runs off 19 balls, earning him the Player of the Match award.
The Super Monsters, then again, are put fifth in the table with 14 places and a net run pace of – 1.355. Due to their lowest net run rate among the tournament’s teams, even a victory in their next game will not be enough to advance.
