Pre-Match Analysis:

Despite good all-round performances, Rocks finished 7th in the standings last year winning 2 of their 6 complete matches played. They were outplayed completely by top-ranked sides and they are ready to give it back this year. They have a formidable batting line-up led by Janneman Malan that also consists of Pieter Malan, Christiann Jonker, Stiaan van Zyl. Hardus Viljoen will be their lead pacer and Achille Cloete can bowl fast.

Dolphins, on the other hand, had a disappointing tournament last year as they signed out without a win. They finished last in the standings with only one point to their name. With fresh hopes they are excited to start this year’s campaign with a win. Elegant batter Keegan Peterson is their man batter. The pace battery consists of Daryn Dupavillon and Ottneil Baartman. All-rounders JJ Smuts and Andile Phehlukwayo have a huge role to play for them.
