Top Pick – All-Rounder

JJ Smuts is a powerful bloke who can hit the ball crisply and is equally handy with the ball. In his 174 T20s, he has scored 4019 runs at an average of 26.09 and picked up 105 wickets at an economy of 6.79.

Top Pick – Bowler

Brydon Carse is a tall fast bowler who represents Durham in County cricket. He has picked up 29 wickets in 51 T20s with the best figures of 3 for 30.

Phil Salt has loads of experience in the shortest format of the game. In 167 T20s, he has scored 3817 runs at an average of 25.44 with the highest score of 88*.

X-Factor:

Rilee Rossouw made it back to the South African T20 squad based on his performances in the T20 Blast last year. His conversion rate is too good as he has 5 centuries and 43 half-centuries in his 277 T20s.

Pre-Match Analysis:

Sunrisers Eastern Cape are relatively inexperienced squad compared to the other franchises. Their entire overseas quota is filled by English players who have a phenomenal record in County cricket. Skipper Aiden Markram and big hitter Tristan Stubbs are the major attraction in the side. Marco Jansen joined the squad recently after finishing his International duties. JJ Smuts has an impeccable record in the domestic circuit and featured in 13 T20Is for South Africa between 2017-2021. Pace spearhead Brydon Carse will be the key with the ball.

Pretoria Capitals co-owned by IPL franchise Delhi Capitals are one of the balanced sides in the competition. English stars Phil Salt and Will Jacks are likely to open the innings. Rilee Rossouw who had a good last year with the bat will bat at No.3. Theunis De Bruyn, Cameron Delport, and Jimmy Neesham will take care of the middle order. Adil Rashid will be their spin weapon. Migael Pretorius and Anrich Nortje are the frontline pacers in the line-up. Both sides have exciting players in their line-up and we can expect sheer entertainment in this match.
