There’s a nice ring to it: WE ARE INTO THE PLAYOFFS. After two tough seasons, this is exactly what we wanted to hear. Let’s say it again.. 

“We want to finish on top, which will be a testament to the team doing all the right things. We were at the bottom for the last two seasons, so what a way to finish on top leading into the play-offs,” said Corbin Bosch at the end of the previous game after MI Cape Town’s record win over the Sunrisers Eastern Cape. 

So, here’s our next mission: To finish in the top two and have two cracks of making it to the Final. With 25 points and a solid net run-rate of +2.205, we have a solid chance of sealing it with one win. The Pretoria Capitals are up next in a back-to-back clash. They are a side on 14 points and would be desperate for a win to stay in the playoff hunt. All in all, there’s everything in this one to light up your Friday evening. 

What: Pretoria Capitals vs MI Cape Town 

When: January 31, 2025 | 17:30 local time, 21:00 IST

Where: SuperSport Park, Centurion

What to expect: The conditions at the SuperSport Park have ranged from the extreme of 212 being chased down to a team getting skittled out for under 100. But a large chunk of the South African boys in our side are from the North and would know what to expect. Bring it on!
