The Dolphins have a superior squad with international short format players available. I’m backing the 2021 runners-up to get victory in their opener of 2022.

  • Knights finished bottom of the CSA T20 Challenge in 2021.
  • Dolphins reached the final of the CSA T20 Challenge in 2021.
  • Dolphins won 5 of their last 6 T20 matches.
  • Dolphins’ David Miller has scored 40+ runs in his last 2 CSA T20 Challenge matches.

Head to Head


The Dolphins have won three of their last four matches against the Knights. It was however the Knights who were victorious in their last outing by seven runs in October 2021.

Knights Form


The Knights will want a vast improvement from the 2021 CSA T20 Challenge. They finished bottom of the table, winning just one of their five matches.

It has been a tough few years for the Free State side. They have not made the final of the tournament since the 2014/15 season. Their last title was back in 2005/06 when they played as the Eagles. 

The Knights, then Eagles, actually won two of the first three editions of the tournament but have yet to really challenge much since.

Knights Injuries & Team News


The Knights have some talent within their side. Migael Pretorious should again lead the attack while on the batting front, Pite van Biljon will need to score big.

Dolphins Form


The Dolphins were magnificent in the 2021 CSA T20 Challenge as they went on an unbeaten run in the round robin stage.

The Durban-based outfit won all five of their matches, comfortably topping the table with 21 points. It must be considered that the tournament was played at Kingsmead so all the Dolphins matches were played at home.

Despite their dominance throughout the season, the Dolphins fell at the final hurdle. Batting first in the final against the Lions, the hosts could only score 107 runs. The Lions chased it down to win by four wickets.

Dolphins Injuries & Team News


Dolphins are missing a few players from last season with the internationals away in New Zealand. They will have to do without Keshav Maharaj and Sarel Erwee. 

Yet, they will still have the services of Khaya Zondo and Daryn Dupavillon who have great pedigree in the T20 format.

Verdict

The Dolphins have some international experience within their squad which should see them ease to victory. David Miller is backed to top score.

For the Knights, Pite van Biljon offers the best value at this point in the best batsman market.
