Eastern Storm vs South Africa Emerging Players Chances of Winning

Eastern Storm were a competitive side in the tournament last season and they won four matches throughout their campaign. Their last match against Limpopo was also a success despite the fact that Eastern Storm posted a low total of 246 runs on the board - opener Juandre Johnson’s 47 and Shane Dadswell’s 44 were the top performances of the match but the team were still on tenterhooks with a substandard total. Somehow, the bowling attack banded together and toppled Limpopo’s batting order one after the other. They eked out a 23-run victory in the end.

South Africa Emerging Players had a solid campaign last season and they were the title winners. They made it to the final against the Knights and it was really the bowlers who made their triumph possible; the Knights batted first but found themselves all out for 276. This was an easy score to chase down and South Africa Emerging Players managed to finish the task with a whopping eight wickets left in hand. The top four were absolutely sensational as David Teeger, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Ethan-John Cunningham and Richard Seletswane scored 95*, 76, 55 and 35*, respectively.
