Knights vs Dolphins Betting Tips
Dolphins to score high before 1st dismissal (@Batery)
Dolphins did not have the start they had hoped for in the tournament. The team started their campaign with a loss but went on to face a draw in the next game. However, the team’s opening order looks in safe hands. Tshepang Dithole and Sarel Erwee opened for the team in the competition so far. Dithole and Erwee average at 27.33 & 49.33 respectively in the current competition. The openers led the opening partnerships of 66 & 99 runs in the first innings of the two games. That said, the batters look in terrific form and will be looking to score well before their first dismissal in the next game.
