Understanding SuperSport Park

These notes use the fixed 2022/23–2025/26 archive, regardless of the filter above. They do not describe today’s pitch or weather.

The early seasons scored more heavily

The first-innings mean was 198.3 in 2022/23 and 196.8 in 2023/24. It fell to 167.5 in 2024/25 before reaching 173.2 in 2025/26. The samples contain six, four, six and five innings. A description based only on the inaugural season would therefore overstate the average of either of the two most recent seasons in this archive.

254/4 is a record, not a routine total

Durban's Super Giants made 254/4 on 5 February 2023 and beat Pretoria Capitals by 151 runs. It is the highest eligible first-innings total in our SuperSport Park sample. The same archive includes Joburg Super Kings' 99/9 on 28 January 2025, chased by Pretoria Capitals in 12 overs. Both results matter when judging how widely individual totals can vary.

A large average did not mean easy chases

Teams batting second won eight of the 21 eligible decided matches, or 38.1%, across all seasons. They won none of four in 2023/24 but four of six in 2024/25. The change shows why the venue average and chasing record should be read together. Neither calculation holds the target, opposition or playing conditions constant.

Reading the final five overs

The all-season death-overs rate is 10.99 runs per over, pooled across both regulation innings of eligible matches. The powerplay and middle-overs rates are 8.52 and 8.53. The late rate uses only deliveries actually bowled in overs 16–20. Successful chases that finish earlier cannot contribute to it, and the figure does not promise another 55 runs whenever an innings reaches the 16th over.

Questions about SuperSport Park

How often do teams make 200 at SuperSport Park in SA20?

Ten of 21 eligible first innings reached 200 across 2022/23–2025/26, while five finished below 140. No other ground in this snapshot has as many 200-plus first innings. The count describes the available standard-match sample. Select one season before comparing it with another ground, because Centurion's larger totals are not evenly spread over time.

Are Centurion and SuperSport Park the same venue here?

Yes. SuperSport Park is the ground in Centurion used by Pretoria Capitals. This site groups the relevant source venue names under one page, so city and ground-name searches lead to the same statistics rather than duplicate records.

Is 183 a par score at SuperSport Park?

It is close to this sample's first-innings mean, not an assessed par score for an upcoming game. The median and selected season provide further historical context. A current target assessment would also need information about the teams and match conditions.

How recent is the written analysis?

The examples cover source seasons 2022/23 through 2025/26 in the snapshot reviewed on 19 October 2026. They stay fixed when you change the season filter. Check the filtered tables for the chosen season's sample and results.
