Joburg Super Kings Playing XI vs MI Cape Town- SA20 2025-26, Match 15
Openers: Matthew De Villiers, Faf du Plessis (c)
Joburg Super Kings, who have had a good start to the fourth season of the SA20 and are coming into the contest against the MI Cape Town with a win in their last completed game against DSG, would want to replicate the same performance against MICT.
The visitors for this particular game have got all their bases covered with a lot of options in both the batting and bowling departments.
All eyes will be on the captain of the team, Faf du Plessis, who has performed both as a batter and as the captain so far in the tournament, to do so again in the next match against the MICT.
Faf du Plessis will be partnered by Matthew De Villiers, who, like his captain, has been impressive with his strokeplay in the first six overs and would want to continue playing in this manner in the match in question.
Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Wiaan Mulder, Shubham Ranjane, Rivaldo Moonsamy (wk), Donovan Ferreira, Dian Forrester
As far as JSK’s middle order is concerned, it contains batters who can change the game in their team’s favour in no time and will be backed to put on a strong performance against the MI Cape Town and take control of the middle phase of the innings.
Names like Shubham Ranjane and Donovan Ferreira have come good on different occasions to get the team over the line and would hope to do more of the same in the upcoming fixture.
One of the biggest advantages that JSK have in this tournament is that they bat deep with Akal Hosein, who is also capable of clearing the boundary batting at number ten.
The above-mentioned reason gives the JSK batters the freedom to play in an aggressive manner throughout their batting innings and change the plan according to the situation of the game.
Bowlers: Prenelan Subrayen, Reece Topley, Akeal Hosein, Richard Gleeson
Like the batters, the team’s bowlers have also done what has been asked of them on a regular basis in the fourth season of the SA20 and would hope to keep up the good work in the next match as well.
One of the reasons for their success has been the availability of different kinds of bowlers for different conditions, be it a spin-friendly wicket or a pitch that assists fast bowlers.
JSK has as many as three spinners in the form of Prenelan Subrayen, Akeal Hosein, and Donovan Ferreira for the conditions that they encountered in Paarl.
Although the spinners might not have much of a say in the upcoming game, they will look to keep things tight from one end.
The fast bowling department of the team is being handled by Reece Topley, Richard Gleeson, and all-rounder Wiaan Mulder, who would also be entrusted to make the most of whatever help will be available on the wicket at Newlands.
