DURBAN SUPER GIANTS
The Durban Super Giants will be based at Kingsmead and they have a squad capable of going all the way. Stand out players include Wicket Keeper/Batsman Heinrich Klaasen, All-Rounder Jason Holder and Captain, Quinton de Kock.
De Kock is a very strong favourite to be the Top Run Scorer in the series for the Durban Super Giants and he is priced at 17/20 with Charles 7/2, Breetzke 5/1, Klaasen 6/1 and you can get 13/2 and better the balance.

JOBURG SUPER KINGS
The Joburg Super Kings will be based at the Wanderers and will be led by former Proteas Captain, Faf du Plessis. They have a strong base of local talent and while they haven't got as many big names as some of their rivals, they certainly have some good up and coming players in the mix.
Faf du Plessis tops the boards for the Super Kings Top Run Scorer at 14/10 with Hendricks 9/4, Malan 3/1, you can get 6/1 du Plooy and 13/2 and better the balance.

Durban Super Giants 11/10
Joburg Super Kings 8/11
I am once again steering clear of the match result market until I get a better feel for the teams ability and how they perform as a unit. I am going to have a couple of bets in the other markets available.
Suggested Bet: Top Super Giants Batsman, Heinrich Klaasen at 11/4
Klaasen is an explosive batsman and although I am not surprised to see de Kock as favourite, I do think at 27/20 he is a bit short and the value is backing someone else to deliver in this opening match.
I also have a sneak for Klaasen as the Top Run Scorer for the team and I am backing him to get off to a good start.
Suggested Bet: Man of the Match, Holder at 14/1
Holder is capable of performing with both bat and ball and he is a proven match winner on his day and I am going to have a speculative play that he captures the Man of the Match award.
