Monday's Betway SA20 action comes from Newlands where MI Cape Town clash with Paarl Royals and the winner here will go top of the standings
MI Cape Town
MI Cape Town have played 2 matches so far and are currently second on the log with 5 points. First time out Delano Potgieter had a night to remember in MI Cape Town's 97 run win away to the Sunrisers. He made 25 not out off 12 balls with the bat towards the end of MI's innings which closed on 174/7 (Brevis 57). Potgieter then claimed 5 wickets at a cost of just 10 runs from 3 overs and MI wrapped up a most comfortable victory.
On Saturday they went down to Joburg Super Kings by 6 runs (DLS). They started really slowly until Line (48 not out) and Potgieter (44 not out) helped them post 140/6. Rain affected the chase and JSK 82/3 in 11.3 overs got up to the DLS target.
This was how MI lined up last time out.
Rassie van der Dussen, Reeza Hendricks, Connor Esterhuizen (wk), Colin Ingram, Dewald Brevis, George Linde, Azmatullah Omarzai, Rashid Khan (c), Delano Potgieter, Kagiso Rabada, Trent Boult
Paarl Royals

Sunrisers posted 175/5 with Mujeeb Ur Rahman (2/27) and Kwena Maphaka (2/25) among the wickets. Lhuan-dre Pretorius smashed 97 off 51 balls before he was out LBW and Joe Root made 62 off 44 and the target was reached in 18.4 overs.
This was how the Royals lined up in their opening game.

The Verdict
The weather forecast I checked was fine so it should be a cracking WP derby. It's the first home game for MI and I fancy their stronger bowling unit will tip the scales in their favour and I'm with Trent Boult to be top bowler for the hosts
Bet: Top MI Bowler Trent Boult at 27/10 with Betway
