Dolphins Team News & Playing 11
DOL Team News
After winning half of their ten fixtures so far in this campaign, Dolphins come into this game in third place in the CSA T20 Challenge and a win over Titans will see them get very close to second placed Lions. Dolphins were 19 run winners against North West in their last match.
DOL Team Batting
It was a remarkable batting scorecard from Dolphins in the last game as seven of their batters made single figure scores but 72 not out from Marques Ackerman and 66 from Eathan Bosch took the team to 173/8. They will need contributions from across the line-up in this game.
DOL Team Bowling
Andile Phehlukwayo and JJ Smuts were the only two bowlers in the Dolphins attack to go wicketless in Match 38 but overall it was a very impressive bowling performance. Okuhle Cele will enjoy the pace on offer from this pitch in Durban.
DOL Team Form
Dolphins come into this game with two wins from their last three and three victories from their last five.

Titans Team News & Playing 11
TIT Team News
Although they are up in fifth place in the table, Titans fell to an embarrassing 6 wicket defeat to bottom of the table KZN-Inland in their last match. This was a particular surprise as they had beaten top of the league Warriors in their last game.
TIT Team Batting
Keeper-batter Lhuan-dre Pretorius hit ten fours in his 58 runs from 43 balls at the top of the order against KZN-Inland and it will be very interesting to see how the 18 year old gets on in this match. The experienced Neil Brand has been a consistent batting presence in the middle order.
TIT Team Bowling
Most pundits expected Titans to be able to defend a target of 166 against KZN-Inland but only Lungi Ngidi and Dayyaan Galiem were amongst the wickets in that match. Galiem may well open the bowling in this match as Lizaad Williams has just been recruited by Delhi Capitals in the IPL.
TIT Team Form
Titans beat Warriors in Match 34 but that is their only victory from their last seven games.
Titans Predicted Playing 11
Lhuan-dre Pretorius (wk), Steve Stolk, Rivaldo Moonsamy, Sibonelo Makhanya, Neil Brand, Dayyaan Galiem, Corbin Bosch, Aaron Phangiso (c), Lungi Ngidi, Junior Dala, Tabraiz Shamsi
🏆 Dolphins vs Titans Prediction
Titans have shown that they can pluck a remarkable victory from nowhere and they will need to do the same in this game if they are to beat Dolphins. Titans were very disappointing in their last match and we expect an improvement in this one but we are backing Dolphins to win.
