MICT vs JSK FAQ

The MI Cape Town (MICT) will host the Joburg Super Kings (JSK) in Match 15 of the SA20 2025-26 at Newlands, Cape Town, on Tuesday, January 6.

The MI Cape Town are in serious trouble this season. They have played five matches but are still without a win.

With four wins in four matches, the JSK team is full of energy and will be looking to continue their unbeaten streak. A victory will increase their hold on the top position.

MICT vs JSK: Pitch Report

The pitch at Newlands usually offers help to both batters and bowlers. Teams batting first have won more matches here. The ball can move early, giving fast bowlers an edge, while spinners also get some assistance later in the game. Batting becomes tougher in the second innings, so setting a good total is important.

MICT vs JSK Match Preview

MI Cape Town and the Joburg Super Kings have each won two matches this season, but the Joburg Super Kings' perfect record was broken by the weather in their most recent game against the Pretoria Capitals. However, they had only limited the Capitals to 138/8 from their 20 overs, putting them in a very strong position, so they will be confident going into this match. MI Cape Town, the hosts of this game, has two convincing victories but has failed to back them up, losing to Joburg Super Kings in game four and to Paarl Royals in game nine.
