NMG vs CTB Dream11 Team Prediction : Nelson Mandela Bay Giants Vs Cape Town Best Dream 11 Team Blitz Mzansi Super League 2019 Match

NMG vs CTB Dream11, Probable Playing 11, Toss, Pitch And Match Report: Top for the league decider sees first and second place go at loggerheads against each other.

Back after a hiatus with the players being accorded a well earned rest after a set of gruelling and tedious set of fixtures, the Mzansi Super League returns with a gargantuan tie. When first place Cape Town Blitz will be squaring off against second placed Nelson Mandela Bay Giants, we are bound to be in for a thriller, an intoxicating brew which promises to be filled with twists and turns at every stage.

Currently sitting in first place in the points tally with the three wins from four matches, Cape Town Blitz has massively impressed owing to their sensational batting line-up. The side are coming into this encounter in the wake of a two match winning spree with a 10 run win as they defended their score of 174 infront of Durban Heat the last time around.

Elsewhere, for Nelson Mandela Bay Giants, today’s clash is not only about trying to displace Cape Town Blitz from top spot but also keeping their speckle free and unscathed record in the league intact. The side have won two out of three encounters whilst one was abandoned due to widespread and relentless rainfall to see the side finding themselves on 11 points as thing stand

The side are making an advent into the day’s clash having routed and trounced Jozi Stars the last time around in what was an exceptional and sensational display in all the departments of the day. Bundling out their opponents for just 108 while fielding first, the side were equally ruthless with the bat as they chased down the score at hand with a vast 10.5 overs in their kitty.

Pitch Conditions And Toss

A wicket which hasn’t quite been tailored out to fit in the bill of the power packed, clean hitting format of T20, this is a track which offers ample help to the bowlers who are more than willing to take pace off the ball. The ball will stop, grip and stay low to make strokeplay a tepid task with the side winning the toss set to come out and chase on this track.

NMG vs CTB Dream11 Batsmen

Continuing with the batting picks from Cape Town Blitz and we are making Janneman Malan our first pick in this section of our Dream 11 setup with the player playing the perfect partner to Quinton. The two openers have laid down some astute opening stands for the side, marauding their way towards hefty partnerships to see us opt for the duo for this one.

After scoring 43 runs in the last time in a match where both the openers had a rare failure, Marques Ackerman will be coming in as well from the unit while from the other side of the docket we are moving in with their opner and wicket-keeper Ben Dunk. He ended up taking just 30 balls to reach his 50 in the side’s run chase the last time around, a knock which saw his side cruise past the finishing line.

NMG vs CTB Dream11 All-Rounders

After sending down 1-14 with the ball in the same match as well as holding an escalated role in the batting order, Chris Morris is our choice from Nelson Mandela Bay Giants while the opposition will be dominating this segment of our side as well. We being with Lam Livingstone who scored 25 runs in the side’s last affair with George Linde being his partner for the day.

NMG vs CTB Dream11 Bowling Order

Given the identity of the wicket set to be laid out for today’s forthcoming contest and with both the sides coming with such stellar and stalwart bowlers in their artillery, it was only befitting of us to shell out a staggering amount to make this the most heavily packed component of our side. We begin with quick Dale Steyn after he took 2-23 in the side’s foregone win with Sisanda Magala giving him company as well.

The two players will be imbedded into our unit from the other side of the unit as well with Junior Dala and Imran Tahir both coming in after the two cut short the opposition with the six wickets in between them, the three for either place in the side’s last outing.
