San Francisco Unicorns vs Texas Super Kings Prediction: Super Kings won all games against Unicorns

San Francisco Unicorns and Texas Super Kings are going to face off in the Play-Offs of Major League Cricket at the Grand Prairie Stadium, Grand Prairie, United States on 27th July, 2024. The Super Kings won all the games that took place in the league against the Unicorns. Who will win this game of cricket?

Corey Anderson's team had put up a disappointing show against Washington Freedom in the Qualifier with a score of just 145 runs and then losing by 7 wickets. They need to bounce back from this defeat and put on a better show. With a previous loss to the Texas Super Kings, Anderson hopes his players learn from that experience and come out strong to reach the finals.

The hard battle against the Texas Super Kings' bowlers will be for Finn Allen and Jake Fraser-McGurk. Sanjay Krishnamurthi needs to carry forward his fine form, and combine well with Josh Inglis and Sherfane Rutherford in the middle order. Hassan Khan and Anderson will turn out to be pivotal in adding quick runs in the lower middle order.

The experience of Pat Cummins will be crucial in picking up some early wickets alongside Carmi le Roux. A lot more had been expected of Haris Rauf, and a better show is expected from him and Hassan Khan in the middle overs. Anderson and Juanoy Drysdale may be called upon into some important supporting roles.

Faf du Plessis led his team, the Challenger, to a 9-wicket victory over MI New York in the Eliminator. In the previous game, the batsmen were at their clinical best, tearing apart the opposition's bowling attack. Skipper Faf du Plessis wants to continue the good work in leadership and take his side to the final. Opener duo Devon Conway and Faf du Plessis presented a stable partnership in the last game, and the two opening batsmen would be expecting its continuation. The middle order comprising Aaron Hardie, Joshua Tromp, and Marcus Stoinis will have to hold firm with fine partnerships. Dwayne Bravo and Calvin Savage are supposed to hit big at the end. Zia-ul-Haq and Marcus Stoinis bowled well in the previous game, and it will be banked upon both of these players to come up with a similar display. Calvin Savage and Noor Ahmed have to bowl economically in the middle overs to keep the pressure on the Unicorns. With the likes of Mohammad Mohsin, Bravo, and Hardie adding variety to the bowling attack, it looks like an overall strong performance by the team.

The San Francisco Unicorns are going into the game on the back of a rather poor performance with the bat, which has possibly dented their confidence a bit.

Moreover, it will be a team that has always beaten them in the past. For the Unicorns, their chances of success revolve around whether their top batsmen can put up a good show. On the other hand, the Texas Super Kings are on a roll because of an overall good form for their top order. Although we do believe this might turn out to be a really good game, the Super Kings are only slight favorites to win this game. Our tip is to win for the Texas Super Kings.
