Titans vs Dolphins Team Preview & Squads
Titans
Roelof van der Merwe brings years of tactical sharpness and competitive intensity to the TITNS leadership. His proactive field settings and astute spin decisions make him a tough captain to out-think.
With Heinrich Klaasen and Donovan Ferreira in the middle, Titans possess brutal death-overs hitting capability. Keegan Petersen stabilises the top-order while Andile Phehlukwayo adds flexibility at No. 6 or 7. They bat deep enough to power through collapses or launch late assaults.
Lungi Ngidi and Lizaad Williams bring genuine pace with new-ball venom, while Duan Jansen provides left-arm variation. Van der Merwe controls the middle overs with experience and accuracy, supported by Dayyaan Galiem’s seam variations. Their combination allows them to attack constantly rather than merely contain.
TITNS defeated North West by 7 runs in their previous outing on Nov 14, 2025, at Potchefstroom. They posted 196/6, showcasing electric boundary-hitting and batting discipline. North West fought hard during the chase but ended at 189/6. Titans held composure in the final overs a crucial sign of tournament maturity.

Dolphins
JJ Smuts leads the DOLPH with calm authority and deep T20 game awareness. His dual ability as a batter and part-time spinner gives the side strategic flexibility. His leadership often shines in clutch moments, even when the squad battles inconsistency.
DOLPH rely on the flair of Leus du Plooy and Bryce Parsons to drive the innings. Tshepang Dithole and Romashan Pillay provide stroke-making options at the top. But the middle order must fire collectively to compete with the Titans’ firepower.
Anrich Nortje delivers raw pace and intimidation and will be the Dolphins’ main weapon. Eathan Bosch supports with seam accuracy while Aryan Gopalan brings spin into the attack. Their success depends on early breakthroughs; otherwise, controlling Titans could become difficult.
Dolphins fell short in their previous match against Western Province on November 16, 2025, at Cape Town. After posting 138/7, they lacked acceleration throughout the innings. Western Province chased the target comfortably at 139/5 in 18.1 overs. The loss highlighted the Dolphins’ struggle in the middle overs with both bat and ball.

TITNS vs DOLPH Outfield Report
SuperSport Park, Centurion
The Centurion pitch traditionally offers firm bounce and encourages stroke-making. Batters who commit through the line are rewarded, but seamers with back-of-length precision remain influential. Expect high pace and high scoring, but not without challenges.
Weather conditions appear ideal with clear skies and temperatures hovering around 26–29°C. Dew may appear in the second innings, which could slightly tilt the advantage toward the chasing team. No rain is expected to interrupt play.
Historically, Centurion delivers first-innings totals between 165–205, depending on batting execution. Defending totals under 170 is difficult here due to fast scoring in the power play and dew effect. Anything above 190 becomes strongly competitive, particularly with early wickets.
