Dolphins vs Warriors Toss Prediction
Dolphins are the predicted toss winners and are expected to bat first. With a projected total of 180+, posting a target looks attractive if the Durban surface behaves, though evening dew could tempt captains to chase. Warriors’ 170+ projection suggests runs will flow either way, so the toss helps but should not decide the result.
Kingsmead, Durban Pitch Report
An official pitch report has not been supplied, so this assessment relies on the available signals. Projected totals of 180+ for Dolphins and 170+ for Warriors point towards a surface that rewards stroke-makers, and both sides recently chased with plenty of overs to spare. Bowlers who vary pace and hit tight lengths in the middle overs should stay in the contest, so recheck the pitch update closer to the toss.
Weather Report
Temperature and dew details are not confirmed at the time of writing, so check the latest forecast before the start. If dew arrives later in the evening, it can make the ball harder to grip for bowlers defending a total, which keeps chasing a live option despite the predicted toss decision. No rain interruption is indicated in the available information, so a full 20-over contest is the working expectation.

Dolphins vs Warriors Team Preview & Squads
Dolphins
Prenelan Subrayen leads Dolphins as both captain and key bowler, and this preview starts with him for good reason. Steering the field while carrying wicket-taking duties gives the side clear direction, and he is our predicted top wicket-taker for the home team.
Their batting unit looks in fine shape after reeling in North West’s target of 145 with ease, finishing on 148/3 inside 16 overs to win by seven wickets with 24 balls to spare. Jason Smith is our predicted Player of the Match, top run-scorer and most sixes hitter, while Bryce Parsons is the key batter and David Miller and Khaya Zondo add experience. A projected 180+ shows genuine intent.
Bryce Parsons doubles as the key all-rounder, giving the playing XI balance with bat and ball. Keith Dudgeon, Okuhle Cele and Nqobani Mokoena add bowling options, and in the last game this unit held North West to 144/5.
Dolphins Squads
Hanu Viljoen, Jason Smith, Marques Ackerman, Khaya Zondo, Bryce Parsons, Romashan Pillay, Semal Pillay, Joshua Richards, David Miller, Bayanda Majola, Prenelan Subrayen, Keith Dudgeon, Grant Roelofsen, Andile Simelane, Okuhle Cele, Nqobani Mokoena
Warriors
Matthew de Villiers captains Warriors and also serves as the key batter, so his leadership and runs are central to this Warriors preview. The tourists come into this one in good form, having taken down South Western Districts by nine wickets in Oudtshoorn on October 16, 2026.
Jordan Hermann is the predicted top run-scorer and most sixes hitter, making him a smart name in any fantasy cricket tips list. Warriors chased 69 in only 9.3 overs, finishing 70/1 with 63 balls remaining, and a projected 170+ here shows they can push Dolphins hard with Jean du Plessis and JP King also in the group.
Thomas Kaber is the key bowler and predicted top wicket-taker, while Andile Mokgakane is the key all-rounder. Duanne Olivier, Beuran Hendricks and Gideon Peters add depth to the attack, which restricted South Western Districts to 68 last time out.
Warriors Squads
Jean du Plessis, Matthew de Villiers, Jordan Hermann, Sibonelo Makhanya, JP King, Patrick Kruger, Matthew Boast, Modiri Litheko, Andile Mokgakane, Muhammad Manack, Beuran Hendricks, Wesley Bedja, Duanne Olivier, Gideon Peters, Kerwin Mungroo
