University Oval, Potchefstroom

On March 9, 2025, North West and Dolphins are poised to clash in the CSA Provincial One-Day Challenge Division One. They will face each other at University Oval, Potchefstroom, with a scheduled start time of 1:30 P.M IST.

North West vs Dolphins Chances of Winning

North West lost to Titans by a substantial margin in the previous outing where the latter batted first and secured an outstanding first innings stand of 376 runs. North West’s bowlers conceded far too many runs and it left the batters out to dry since they found it difficult to chase such a mammoth total. Janneman Malan stood out with a 92*-run mark and opener Rubin Hermann scored a half-century with 63 runs. The rest of the team, though, failed to make even a slightly consequential contribution and that resulted in North West getting bundled out for 243 runs in 40 overs, leading to a whopping 133-run defeat.

On the other end of the spectrum, Dolphins extended their winning streak with an easy chase against the Knights in the previous game. The latter were limited to a measly total of 196 and, needless to say, this was a piece of cake for Dolphins. Their victory was guaranteed at this point but the batters took a long time to make it over the line and they lost five wickets in the process. Jason Smith emerged as the team’s leading batter with 71 runs and wicket-keeper batter Hanu Viljoen was next in line with an unbeaten 64. In the end, Dolphins took a five-wicket triumph.

North West vs Dolphins Betting Tips

Dolphins to score over 26.5 before first dismissal @ 1.83 (Parimatch)

JJ Smuts has been an invaluable part of Dolphins’ first wicket this season and despite his ups and downs, he did a lot for the first partnership. However, he did not receive much support from Sarel Erwee who was his opening partner for a majority of the season. After the latter was replaced by Tshepang Dithole, there has been a noticeable improvement. The team has opening scores of 6, 129, 8, 81 and 1 in the last five matches, and they are expected to build on their form in the next outing against North West.

North West vs Dolphins Toss Prediction

University Oval has been a high scoring venue this season with an impressive average first innings total of 304. After an aberration in the first game where the chasing side emerged victorious, the teams batting first went on to take victory in the following two matches. Batting first will also be the toss winner’s go-to strategy for the next game.

Weather Report

A negligible 15% likelihood of rainfall is predicted at Potchefstroom with mostly sunny skies and a maximum temperature of 27 degrees Celsius.

North West vs Dolphins Betting Odds

Dolphins to have a better opening partnership than North West

Rubin Hermann has been North West’s mainstay at the front but his opening partner changed from Janneman Malan to Meeka-eel Prince in the last game. The team has opening stands of 49, 0 and 17 runs in the last three games but at this juncture, Dolphins have an advantage. JJ Smuts and Tshepang Dithole have opened the last two matches and they set up totals of 6 and 129 together. Although Smuts had a bad day in office with the bat, he will return stronger and it will certainly consolidate Dolphins’ first wicket in the upcoming match.

North West vs Dolphins Best Batters

Janneman Malan to be North West’s Best Batter

Janneman Malan scored his second half-century of the season and missed out on a ton as he was stranded in the 90s, having been not out on 92. He is currently the team’s leading batter by quite a margin with 236 runs in six innings. Averaging at 47.20, he is expected to be their standout batter in the next game.

JJ Smuts to be Dolphins’ Best Batter

JJ Smuts has had two back-to-back substandard performances but despite his seven-ball duck in the last game, he leads Dolphins’ run charts with 285 runs in six innings and an average of 47.50. He has a total of four half-centuries this season and he is relied upon to come good against North West.

North West vs Dolphins Best Bowlers

Kerwin Mungroo to be North West’s Best Bowler

Kerwin Mungroo went wicketless in the previous encounter versus Titans during his full quota of ten overs. Nevertheless, he is the second leading bowler for North West with 11 wickets in six innings. His average of 20.54 is the best of the team and he will be anticipated to be their premier bowler in the upcoming match.

Prenelan Subrayen to be Dolphins’ Best Bowler

In the previous encounter against Knights, Prenelan Subrayen was tied as the second leading bowler but his spell was exceptional. In ten overs, he bowled two maidens, claimed two wickets and achieved a remarkable economy rate of 2.60. He is now their top bowler with ten wickets in six innings and an average of 19.30, making him the top choice for the next fixture.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Dolphins

North West seemed to be a competitive side in the beginning of the season where they won two of their first three matches. However, they did not taste success again as they suffered three consecutive losses and dropped down to seventh on the table with a net run rate of -1.342, the worst of any team. Dolphins, on the other hand, turned their form on its head after two losses at the start of their campaign but they enter this match on the back of three wins and a net run rate of 0.227. They are endorsed by the bookmakers to clinch victory in this encounter as well.

• North West to win @ 2.14 (Parimatch)
