Pitch Report
Both Northern Cape home games at Diamond Oval this season were lost to rain, so there are no fresh scores from this ground. What we do know is that both these batting units have struggled. Northern Cape made 83 and 135 in their two games. Limpopo made 140, 91 and 128. Bowlers have done most of the damage against both teams. For fantasy, keep at least four or five bowlers and players who bowl their full four overs. A first innings score of around 130 to 140 looks par on current form. Chasing makes sense if rain is around, because the team batting second knows the target if overs get cut.
Weather Report
Kimberley on Tuesday: high of about 23°C and low of about 16°C. There is a 40 percent chance of rain, so the game could get cut short. Keep checking for late changes before the toss.

Match Prediction
Limpopo Impalas look the better side for this game. They have more players in form, with Kemm and Bayoumy scoring runs and Radebe and Mayes bowling well. Northern Cape have home ground, but their batting made only 83 in the last game. Rain is the big worry, so the result may come down to a shorter game. We pick Limpopo to win.
