On Wednesday, January 18, the Pretoria Capitals and Joburg Super Kings will face off in Match No. 13 of the SA20 2023. Centurion’s SuperSport Park will host the match. The three outstanding pacers at the Pretoria Capitals will absolutely adore the conditions at home. The team’s confidence must have been boosted by Phil Salt’s bat in the previous match, and they would also like Will Jacks and Rilee Rossouw to demonstrate their class.
Even though Sunrisers Eastern Cape has a good team, they should let players like Tristan Stubbs, Aiden Markram, and Tom Abell play more deliveries for them. In the team’s most recent match, JJ Smuts produced an outstanding knock. The side’s bowling will once again be led by Marco Jansen.

The first match of the ongoing SA20 League will take place at the Centurion SuperSport Park. The pacers will undoubtedly relish the opportunity to play at Centurion’s track, which is one of South Africa’s best venues. One of the country’s most bouncy tracks is here.
The pacers will benefit from the extra bounce on the track and be able to move the ball with the new white ball as well. If recent matches are taken into consideration, the pacers have taken the most wickets here. However, this pitch also helps the batters when the ball gets old.
