Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Joburg Super Kings Chance of Winning
Sunrisers Eastern Cape won the inaugural edition of the SA20 competition, getting the better of table-toppers Pretoria Capitals by four wickets in the final. This year, they once again have an imposing look with Aiden Markram, Marco Jansen, Tristan Stubbs, Craig Overton, and Dawid Malan manning the squad. That’s too good of an association for them to let down anyone.
On the other hand, Joburg Super Kings aren’t too far behind either. With Faf du Plessis leading the squad, the Super Kings have the likes of Gerald Coetzee, Moeen Ali, Reeza Hendricks, Lizaad Williams, and Nandre Burger in their line-up. While the pedigree factor definitely lay there, the JSK management, by virtue of being a subsidiary of Chennai Super Kings group, know how to navigate through that.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Joburg Super Kings Betting Tips
Well, if it’s a T20 match, it is extremely hard not to go crazy about Faf du Plessis. Over the years, the former South African skipper has created a pattern of sorts to do well in matches that many believe was out of reach. Further, Burger has done really well against India and seems eager to deliver in the SA20 as well. I am also banking Sunrisers skipper Aiden Markram to deliver for his franchise, knowing the kind of season he had last time around plus the Cape Town century that seemed otherworldly.
