Durban and Cape Town locked horns earlier in the tournament on January 11. The former won the match by 11 runs (via DLS method). Heinrich Klaasen had played an incredible innings of 85 off just 35 balls to help his side pick up a memorable victory. Kieron Pollard and Co. would love to avenge that defeat and get back to winning ways in front of their home fans. Also, Cape Town have lost all three matches they have played thus far against Durban. However, past records won’t count for much when they square off on Tuesday.
