Boland Team News & Playing 11
BOL Team News
This will be Boland’s third match of the tournament and they are still looking for their first victory after defeats against Lions and Titans so far. They are up against another strong side in Dolphins and it could well be another defeat in this fixture.
BOL Team Batting
With some recognisable names from domestic and international cricket in South Africa, Boland’s batters should be doing better in this competition. Captain Pieter Malan, Janneman Malan, Keegan Petersen and Clyde Fortuin make up the top four and we can expect one of them to make a big contribution in this match.
BOL Team Bowling
Defending a target of 127 in the last game, the Boland pair of Siyabonga Mahima and Michael Copeland both took two-wickets but ultimately there were not enough runs to play with! Spinner Shaun von Berg is always an economical bowler and we expect more of the same in this fixture.
BOL Team Form
Boland have lost by 44 runs and by 4 wickets with 5 balls remaining so far in the tournament.
Boland Predicted Playing 11
Pieter Malan (c), Janneman Malan, Keegan Petersen, Clyde Fortuin (wk), Michael Copeland, Christiaan Jonker, Ferisco Adams, Shaun von Berg, Imran Manack, Siyabonga Mahima, Akhona Mnyaka
Dolphins Team News & Playing 11
DOL Team News
Fans of the Dolphins were particularly downbeat after defeats to Warriors by 7 wickets and Western Province by 2 runs from their opening two matches but they come into this clash against Boland after getting their first win of the campaign against Lions in Match 10.
DOL Team Batting
Bryce Parsons was the key batter for Dolphins as they chased down their target of 157 to beat Lions. The opener scored four fours and three sixes as he finished not out and allowed other batters to play their shots around him. Parsons and Roelofsen make for a strong opening pair.
DOL Team Bowling
Dolphins will be looking to be more penetrative in this game after only taking five wickets, albeit in a victory, in their last game. Okhule Cele is a very accurate and very quick bowler who was their standout bowler against Lions and may well be so again in this match against Boland.
DOL Team Form
Dolphins finally got their opening victory of the tournament with a margin of 4 wickets in their last match.
Dolphins Predicted Playing 11
Bryce Parsons, Grant Roelofsen (wk), JJ Smuts, Bradley Porteous, Jason Smith, Andile Phehlukwayo, Khaya Zondo, Prenelan Subrayen (c), Daryn Dupavillon, Ottniel Baartman, Okuhle Cele
🏆 Boland vs Dolphins Prediction
Both of these sides lost their first two games of the tournament with Dolphins winning their third and this match being the third game for Boland. As the hosts, Boland will have a slight advantage but Dolphins impressed in their last game and we are backing them to win again in this fixture.
