Dolphins vs Knights Betting Tips

Knights to score under 15.5 runs before 1st dismissal (1.87@Batery)

Knights have been unsuccessful in producing favourable results. Their opening order revolves around Jacques Snyman and Lesego Senokwane. Snyman and Senokwane average at 23.40 & 21.20 respectively in the competition. The team has produced 26, 18, 1, 4 & 55 runs before their 1st dismissal in their five games of the competition. They scored high for their opening partnership in the last game but Senokwane only bundled out for 9 runs in the game. It was fortunate that he was deprived of the strike before he lost his wicket. That said, Knights will not be so lucky this time and lose an early wicket.
