After MI Cape Town came out victorious by a margin of 34 runs in the last-round battle against Pretoria Capitals on Thursday, the latter will want to exact revenge by getting the better of the Kieron Pollard-led side at the Newlands, Cape Town, on February 3, 2024, with the match starting at 5:00 PM IST. While qualification chances are extremely low for Pretoria Capitals, MI Cape Town can still make it to the next stage if a few other results go their way.

MI Cape Town vs Pretoria Capitals Chance of Winning

MI Cape Town might have underperformed as per their potential, but boy, oh boy, can they land a sucker punch? When they have stood up, it has been right on the back of a solid showing throughout the match - a situation bolstered by the presence of the likes of Ryan Rickelton and Dewald Brevis.

On the other hand, despite some good individual performances, Pretoria Capitals haven’t been able to manage their stick in the right way - leaving a disastrous performance in the wake. The middle order and the bowling attack have been thoroughly disappointing - failing to capitalise on important moments and leaving out a lot of opportunities to chances.

Pretoria Capitals Team Form

Pretoria Capitals have, once again, come down the points table to take the sixth spot. They were expected to win the Thursday encounter, but losing that game by a fair margin, they have reduced their chances, so much so that the last league game has become more of a formality for them.

MI Cape Town vs Pretoria Capitals Head-To-Head

Last year, Pretoria Capitals and MI Cape Town faced each other two times, and in both occasions, the former came out victorious. However, MI Cape Town gathered the strength to beat them fair and square on Thursday.

MI Cape Town vs Pretoria Capitals Betting Odds

MICT to score above 50.5 runs in the powerplay @ 1.88 (Parimatch)

A side that has Ryan Rickelton in their ranks can’t go wrong in the powerplay, can they? So good they have been this season that they maintained a run-rate of 9.8 in the first six overs of the innings, with Rickelton himself maintaining a strike rate of 198.25. That is crazy. So you can always make money on this bet with 88% on the premium.

MI Cape Town vs Pretoria Capitals Best Batters

Ryan Rickelton to be MI Cape Town’s best batter (Parimatch)

Ryan Rickelton has been the most prolific run-maker in a season of T20 league, having already amassed 495 runs at an average of 61.87 and a strike rate of 176.15. He has already managed to score five 50-plus scores - but what is staggering about that is Rickelton has always managed to score over 80 each time he crosses the 50-run mark.

Will Jacks to be Pretoria Capitals’ best batter (Parimatch)

Will Jacks has been the single-biggest and best performer for Pretoria Capitals this season, having scored 244 runs in nine matches at an average of 30.50. Those runs have come at a strike rate of 183.45, with a highest score of 101. So there’s definitely a chance to make money there.

MI Cape Town vs Pretoria Capitals Best Bowlers

Kagiso Rabada to be MI Cape Town’s best bowler (Parimatch)

Kagiso Rabada has been as prolific as it gets in the shortest format of the game, and naturally, he has been the best bowler - statistically - for MI Cape Town in the ongoing season of SA20. But he has surely underperformed according to his own standard- but he is surely going to deliver the goods.

Wayne Parnell to be Pretoria Capitals’ best bowler (Parimatch)

Wayne Parnell has just played seven matches in the ongoing SA20, but still tops the wicket-takers list for his side, having grabbed 10 wickets at 21.00. Sure, his economy rate has stayed on the higher side, but by picking those wickets at a strike rate of 11.40, Parnell has ensured that picking wickets is his forte. So trust the skipper to put the lids.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

MI Cape Town

MI Cape Town have the better record and more chance of winning the upcoming game, purely on the basis of what they have done in recent times. With many batters in form, and also bowlers firing on all cyllinders - it is fair to give them the chance to come good in the next game. Their performance could have been seen in the last game against Pretoria Capitals. So I am fully confident that they will be repeating the same thing once again to guide the side to a better oddity.
