What to expect from TSK vs MINY match?
Faf du Plessis scored a massive ton (113 vs Seattle), but could not carry on the form in the next match against San Francisco Unicorns. He would like to course correct and return to winning ways to TSK. Expect fireworks from him and the other TSK batters too, who had chased down 221 in the 1st match of the tournament.
On the other hand, the expectations from the defending champs — MINY will be plenty, despite losing their opening match. They have a few power-hitters like Quinton de Kock, Nicholas Pooran , Keiron Pollard and Corbin Bosch in their ranks, who can really tonk the ball. IN short, be prepared for another 210-220 score.
