Pretoria Capitals are set to lock horns with Joburg Super Kings in Match 02 of the SA20 2025-26 at the SuperSport Park in Centurion on Saturday, December 27.
The Pretoria-based team failed to qualify last year after finishing fifth on the points. The team will look to come fresh for this season and hopes to begin their campaign on a high note under the leadership of Keshav Maharaj.
On the other hand, Joburg Super Kings reached the Eliminator last year, but suffered a loss at the hands of Sunrisers
Eastern Cape. The Faf du Plessis-led team will be coming in with a new approach and will look to start the edition with a bang.

SuperSport Park, Centurion — Pitch Report
SuperSport Park offers good assistance to the batters while bowlers struggle. When it gets exposed to overcast conditions, the pacers will find good movement and swing therefore causing trouble to the batters. Spinners have no say in the game as the bounce without turn rules them out of favour.

PC vs JSK - Probable Best Performers
Probable Best Batter: Faf du Plessis
Faf du Plessis will be the player to watch out for in the coming game against Pretoria Capitals. The veteran skipper ended the last season with 286 runs in 10 innings and was the best batter of his team. The Joburg team will once again hope their skipper gives them a flying start.
Probable Best Bowler: Richard Gleeson
The right-arm pacer of Richard Gleeson can be one of the reasons that the JSK can pull off a win in the upcoming clash against the Capitals. Last year, he bagged 14 wickets in 13 games at an economy of 8.07. Now playing for a new franchise, Gleeson will hope he continues his rhythm and picks wickets at regular intervals.
