SA20 match 5 preview


 Today's 2nd match of the SA20 is MI Cape Town vs Durban Super Giants at the Newlands cricket ground. 

The MI Cape Town team will look to gain an early advantage in the tournament and add to their first win and stay on top of the table for now. 

The Super Giants will be looking to turn things around after losing their first match and get their campaign on track again. 

I think MI Cape Town might go unchanged into this match, they might be tempted to bring Rabada and Livingstone in for this game. The Super Giants on the other hand I think will bring Topley to strengthen their bowling. 

Super Giants won the Toss and Chose to bat
