LC de Villiers Oval

Border and South Africa Emerging Players’ CSA Provincial One-Day Challenge Division Two clash is set to be held on March 5, 2025. The sides will lock horns at LC de Villiers Oval, Pretoria, with the match scheduled to begin at 1:30 P.M IST.

Border vs South Africa Emerging Players Chances of Winning

Border remain an inconsistent team in the competition so far but they managed to beat Mpumalanga Rhinos in the last outing. The latter chose to bat first and did a great job as they piled on a score of 282 runs. Border, though, took this challenge head-on and set out to chase it down - their innings was a success right from the start as skipper and opener Jerome Bossr scored a 51-run half-century. Jason Niemand and Lihle Sizani were at the top of their game, having amassed 66 and 61 runs, respectively, which bolstered the team to a winning position. Even though the match was interrupted by rain, Border won by a four-wicket margin via the DLS method.

After a series of disastrous results, South Africa Emerging Players took their first win of the season against Limpopo last time around. Although the latter posted a ridiculously low total of 200 runs, the bowlers pulled off a miracle. Garnett Tarr was the only one who played a consequential innings with a mature knock of 71 and Thabile Hlatuka was next in line with 43 runs. Their bowling attack, though, did not back down whatsoever as they bundled out Limpopo for 169 and gave themselves a solid 31-run victory.

• Border chance of winning - 54%
• South Africa Emerging Players chance of winning - 46%

Border vs South Africa Emerging Players Betting Tips

Border to score high before first dismissal

Border’s consistency at the front has been truly commendable and they have had the same opening pair since the start of the season. Moreover, Nathan Roux and Jerome Bossr’s partnership has improved over the course of four matches with opening totals of 54, 32, 107 and 27 runs so far. Roux and Bossr’s averages of 60.00 and 91.66, respectively, ensure that the team’s first wicket is in safe hands.

Border vs South Africa Emerging Players Toss Prediction

Although both matches held at LC de Villiers Oval in the ongoing season have gone in favor of those batting first, the pitch is primarily suited to the bowlers who have the ability to restrict runs. In fact, the average first innings total of 245 in the tournament is quite mediocre and can be chased down. Despite the outcomes in the last two games, fielding first will be the toss winner’s top choice in the next match.

Weather Report

A 35% possibility of precipitation is predicted at Pretoria with a partial cloud cover and the temperature going up to 26 degrees Celsius.

Border vs South Africa Emerging Players Betting Odds

Border to have a better opening partnership than South Africa Emerging Players

Nathan Roux and Jerome Bossr have been outstanding at the opening front and their relentless approach has earned them remarkable first wicket stands of 54, 32 and 107 runs in the last three encounters. Their consistency puts them in a favorable position, especially since South Africa Emerging Players have not had the same fate in the tournament. Their opening batters have changed in nearly every match until now which has resulted in substandard totals of 17, 22 and 57 runs before the first dismissal in the previous three outings. Border are, naturally, the favorites in this regard.
