Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Durban's Super Giants vs Predictions

The Super Giants are on the verge of missing out on the playoffs: if they lose this match it will be very difficult for them to qualify. The Sunrisers have lost just one match and are top of the table with a match in hand, so they have the momentum to see off the Super Giants.

Head-to-Head

The Sunrisers have won their last five matches against the Super Giants.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape Form

The Sunrisers have won three and lost just one of their six matches this season.

Quinton de Kock is in excellent form, having scored between 42 and 106 runs in six of his last nine white-ball appearances. Jonny Bairstow, after a slow start to the SA20 season, hit his stride with an unbeaten 85 in the team's commanding 10-wicket victory over the Capitals.

On the bowling front, Anrich Nortje has been outstanding this season, currently tied for second place on the wickets leaderboard with nine wickets. His impressive figures include an average of 11.22 and a strike-rate of 9.33. Notably, he delivered a superb performance against the Capitals, taking 3/32 at an economy rate of 8.00. Adam Milne also features prominently, sitting fifth with eight wickets (average 11.25, economy 6.42), which includes taking 2/36 (economy 9.00) in the match against the Capitals.

Durban's Super Giants Form

The Super Giants have lost three of their six matches this season, winning just one match (the opener against MI Cape Town).

Despite Jos Buttler's impressive knock of 97 not out against the Capitals, which places him 6th on the SA20 runs list, the team suffered a defeat. The Super Giants are in need of more significant contributions from key players like Kane Williamson, Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen, none of whom have managed to score more than 40 runs in an innings this season.

The Super Giants' bowling attack has struggled consistently, having conceded over 200 runs in an innings three times across their five completed matches. Eathan Bosch leads the wicket-takers' list with five wickets (ave 23.40), while Simon Harmer has been the most economical bowler for the team, claiming three wickets at an excellent economy rate of just 5.90.
