Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Pretoria Capitals Match Analysis

On Monday night at St George’s Park, Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Pretoria Capitals will square off in Match 15 of the 2024 SA20. The Sunrisers are trying to win the championship three times in a row, while the Capitals are aiming for their second victory. In Gqeberha, the day-night match begins at 17:30 local time.

Despite one game ending in a draw, Sunrisers Eastern Cape did not win either of their opening two matches. Since then, though, they have triumphed in back-to-back games against the Super Giants of Durban and MI Cape Town. They anticipate defeating the Pretoria Capitals once more.

With two overs left on Saturday, Pretoria Capitals lost by six wickets after winning by 17 runs on Thursday. Pretoria Capitals will have a difficult matchup with Sunrisers Eastern Cape, a team that is currently riding high.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Pretoria Capitals Team Preview & Squads

Sunrisers Eastern Cape

We do not anticipate Sunrisers Eastern Cape to make any changes given that Aiden Markram’s team is now playing consistently excellent cricket in the 2024 SA20. The squad is doing well and winning, therefore there’s no need to change the starting lineup.

The 22-year-old left-hander Jordan Hermann scored a century in the eighth game of the season and has struck at a pace far higher than he has in the past throughout his career. Against the Super Giants, Tristan Stubbs, a keeper-battler, amassed 66 runs off of 37 balls without conceding an error. This season, he has already scored two half-centuries.

The right-arm spinner Simon Harmer, who dismissed four of the first five hitters for Durban’s Super Giants on Saturday, was named Player of the Match. Ottniel Baartman, the South Africa international, led the bowling attack and got 3/35 against MI Cape Town. Against the Super Giants, he claimed a wicket on the last ball of the innings.

Pretoria Capitals

The Pretoria Capitals recruited Kyle Verreynne to their squad on Saturday after defeating Durban’s Super Giants in their last match to record their first victory of the competition. Since the team management has not disclosed any injuries, we anticipate starting the same lineup in this match.

The 26-year-old Kyle Verreynne made his debut in the SA20 and impressed with seven fours and one six during his innings. The keeper-battler Phil Salt has not scored a half-century in his last five competitive games, but bowlers should be cautious when facing him since he blasted two hundred in the two preceding innings.

Although all-rounder Will Jacks has already scored a century in the SA20 2024, his bowling has shown to be his most reliable discipline thus far in the competition. In the match against the Johannesburg Super Kings, Adil Rashid, an accomplished right-arm spin bowler, claimed a crucial wicket against Leus du Plooy, one of the team’s top hitters.

St George’s Park

Both teams witnessed the last games of the tournament being won by the team fielded first. Therefore, if both skippers win the toss, we anticipate that they will decide to field first.

Rain is quite unlikely to fall during this game, although it will be gloomy and muggy the entire time. It’s going to be chilly—in the low 20s.

The St. George’s Park pitch will have outstanding bounce and velocity. In this game, a par score will probably be higher than 210.
