Tuesday night at Newlands Cricket Ground is Match 16 of the 2024 SA20 between MI Cape Town and Durban Super Giants. MI Cape Town has nine points after two victories from five games, which is four points less than the Super Giants in second position. Cape Town kicks off the match at 17:30 local time.
In this game, MI Cape Town, who have been inconsistent so far in the competition, will try to recover from their 59-run loss against Paarl Royals. If they are to prevail on Tuesday, they need to make improvements in this area as there were no top-order runs in the last match.
Durban’s Super Giants arrive at Newlands after losing to Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Pretoria Capitals despite having a strong start to the campaign. They do, however, have a formidable batting lineup, and if they click, they should win this match.
After five games in the competition, MI Cape Town appears to have decided on a starting lineup that the team’s management is comfortable with. Following the loss against the Paarl Royals, no injuries were recorded, thus it is not surprising that the same team was chosen for this game.
The left-handed starter, Ryan Rickleton, enters the game having scored 342 runs in this tournament at a very strong strike rate of 179.05. Tall right-hander Rassie van der Dussen, 34, has batted extremely well overall in the competition but will be eager to recover from a two-ball duck in Match 14.
Even though Thomas Kaber, a left-arm wrist spinner, has an 18.3 strike rate in his Twenty20 career, he is excited to play this game at Newlands again. Against Paarl Royals, Nuwan Thushara, a right-arm medium-fast bowler, took key wickets in quick succession of Jos Buttler and Fabian Allen.

Naveen-ul-Haq and Noor Ahmad were included in Durban’s Super Giants XI for their most recent match, and we anticipate that they will both remain in the squad for this match after the Afghanistan Cricket Board retracted their initial decision to forbid both players from playing in the SA20.
Before this game, Heinrich Klaasen, a 32-year-old right-handed middle-order batsman, is in excellent form with over 3700 T20 runs struck at a strike rate of 147.13. In the match against Sunrisers Eastern Cape, opener Matthew Breetzke hit six boundaries. He has demonstrated exceptional quickness in scoring at the top of the order this season.
Tall left-arm speed bowler Reece Topley, who is a consistent threat in T20 cricket, bowled out his international teammate, the in-form Dawid Malan, in the most recent match. In the previous game, Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis took wickets of Aiden Markram and Patrick Kruger. He always can use both the bat and the ball to win a game.
