Main bet is under 334.5 match runs @1.83 (bet 365) in the Giants v Blitz game
Also Ben Dunk under 23.5 runs @1.87 (sunbet) because I think he's useless and will be found out by the top-class Blitz seamers
I also like AB top Tshwane Bat at 3.5 (sportingbet) in pretoria vs Durban Heat

I also like your unders on runs in PE.
For the Spartans & Heat I am placing my faith in the Protea expats - Morkel and Abbott. Reckon they are the standouts for their respective sides.

See there is no preview on this match so will list my logic. Only two incomplete matches at this ground to date.
Runs - Spartans racked up 141/4 in 15 overs against Heat. Last season here Spartans made 203/5 with Rocks in reply 202/6. Runs line just looks light but then so did the line at St George's the other night and I got burnt.
Bowling - Only nine wickets have gone down in the two incomplete matches - all to quicks but then the spinners have not had a good bowl yet. Ground traditionally favours the speedsters.
Sixes - Rocks managed 10 in their 166/7 at St George's the other night and outscored Spartans by 8 to 4 in last years match. Not sure why the Rocks sixes line of 6.5 has moved to 7/10 for the unders?
Match Runs
Over 326 5 @ 17/20
Spartans Bowler
Morkel @ 3/1
Rocks Bowler
Fortuin @ 3/1
Sixes
Based on the line shortening for unders going to take the bet as follows
Most Match Sixes
Rocks @ 11/10

Top Giants bowler: Tahir @5 (lm bookmaker, bet365)
Tahir at home in Durban, 4/1 is very juicy

Giants v Spartans
The St George's wicket has tended to be a little slow and runs hard to come by. There has been some overnight rain and the outfield should not be lightning fast. The first innings runs line of 168.5 has only been achieved in 2 of the 8 innings played and I will have a bet on that. The market that does look attractive is the match 4's. In the four matches to date we have had 18/34/23/18. The ground lends itself to 6's (55 to date against the 93 4's) and with several batsmen capable of clearing the ropes in this match just cannot see this line being made
Total Match 4's
Under 26.5 @ 17/20

Thought it was all gravy after the Spartans put up that score. Absolutely dumbfounded with how shocking both the fielding and bowling has been! About 4 dropped catch's and everything too wide and fast. Dreadful!

Backed the Rocks to win and after posting a outrageous score the Heat chase it down. I think the Spartans have been giving the Rocks lessons in fielding. Dropped catch's just abysmal!

No idea why I still try them on cricket when I have long since learnt that they never work for me in footie.
Wait....people make their living by backing odds on bets on this forum? Surely just a glorified way to say they are unemployed

Taking Tahir with Couch. Just feel (ie not bothering to check piles of stats) that more wickets go down in the last 5 overs then the first 5. Ngidi usually gets an over or two deeper into the match then Morkel and his odds are slightly better. Also about time Morris came up with a good all round performance
Tahir as above
Top Spartans bowler
Ngidi @ 7/2
MOM
Morris @ 12/1

Vann, a little something to back up your Ngidi play. He was given a lot of stick by the crowd in their previous game because of his poor catching. I suspect he'll be fired up for this one.

Joining Couch on Shamsi but taking a slightly different approach on FAF but also of the opinion he is due a good one.
Top Bowlers
Rocks Shamsi @ 3/1
Spartans v d Merwe @ 4/1
Most Sixes
FAF @ 6/1
and adding one for some cover on my Tahir MSL top bowler outright
MOM Shamsi @ 16/1
