Warriors vs Knights Chances of Winning
Warriors have been in a rut this season and they ended up losing for a third time as they took on Titans in the last outing. The former’s batting performance was dismal considering they scored a mere 157 runs - openers Jordan Hermann and Diego Rosier were the top scorers with 39 and 34 runs, respectively. Needless to say, Titans surpassed it with ease and notched up 342 runs which put Warriors under pressure. In their second innings, they were slightly better as they scored 244 runs but this was a piece of cake for Titans who finished the game with a whopping ten wickets in hand.
Knights are currently in a dicey situation and their last game against Western Province did not aid them since it ended in a draw. The latter were kept down to 202 runs and Knights were able to take the lead with ease, having notched up 373 runs. The top four were exceptional considering Isaac Dikgale, Patrick Botha, Lesego Senokwane and Jacques Snyman scored 84, 80, 74 and 56 runs, respectively. Western Province were 87/1 when their allotted four days were up and the teams were in a deadlock.

Warriors vs Knights Betting Tips
Knights to score high before first dismissal
For the first three games of the season, Lesego Senokwane opened the innings alongside Isaac Dikgale but the latter’s lack of consistency weighed down the Knights’ first wicket. During those matches, the openers scored 12, 67, 13, 9 and 11 runs before the first dismissal. However, their performance improved drastically after the latter was dropped in favor of Jacques Snyman and in the last two matches, their opening scores were as high as 69, 137 and 88 runs. Since they were able to sustain their high-scoring partnerships, their opening wicket is endorsed to flourish in the upcoming match.
Warriors vs Knights Toss Prediction
Even though the toss winners preferred to bat first at St George's Park on both occasions so far, the chasing sides were able to pose quite a challenge. Those fielding first achieved one victory while the other fixture was drawn. The average first innings score of 228 is not necessarily defendable and the teams will be keen to field first in the next clash.
Weather Report
The conditions at Gqeberha are going to be mostly sunny and there is no prediction for the rain. The temperature is expected to go up to 27 degrees Celsius.

Warriors vs Knights Betting Odds
Knights to have a better opening partnership than Warriors
Jordan Hermann and Diego Rosier have room for improvement as Warriors’ opening pair, having secured subpar totals of 78, 13, 0, 10, 11 and 8 runs in the last three games. There was only one occasion where they were able to post a competitive stand and their scores otherwise were rather disappointing. Knights’ Jacques Snyman and Lesego Senokwane opened the last two matches together and their partnerships of 69, 137 and 88 were impressive. Since they are able to score well consistently and lay down a solid foundation for the team, the Knights’ opening duo are the favorites for the upcoming game.
