The Joburg Super Kings are gearing up to take on the Sunrisers Eastern Cape for the second time in the SA20 league this year. The match is set for January 26 at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. Fans can catch the live action from 7:00 PM IST.

Joburg Super Kings

After a rough patch, the Joburg Super Kings are eager to bounce back against the Sunrisers. Currently sitting fourth on the points table with 10 points from six matches, they started off strong with two wins—one of which was thanks to the DLS method against MI Cape Town, and another was a solid 28-run victory against the Super Giants. 

Unfortunately, things took a downturn with three losses in a row, the latest being a 14-run loss to SEC in Match 19. With a net run rate of -0.281, they really need to step up their game to keep their playoff hopes alive.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape

On the other side, the Sunrisers Eastern Cape are on a roll, looking to extend their winning streak to five games when they square off against the Super Kings. They’ve climbed to second place in the points table with 19 points from seven matches and a sweet net run rate of 0.158. 

Their recent wins, including that 14-run victory over JSK in Match 19, and solid showings against the Capitals and Super Giants, have highlighted their overall strength. With players firing on all cylinders and momentum in their favour, the Sunrisers are set on solidifying their playoff position.

How Will the Wanderers Stadium Pitch Behave?

The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg is typically a batting-friendly pitch. Fast bowlers might find some early movement with the new ball, but overall, the conditions lean towards helping the batters. Spinners probably won’t get much help here. 

Since only one match has taken place at this venue this SA20 season, and it had some rain interruptions, the captain who wins the toss might consider bowling first to take advantage of those early conditions as the pitch has historically favoured teams chasing the game.

Players To Watch Out For In JSK vs SEC Match 22

Joburg Super Kings

Faf du Plessis

Boasting a decent strike rate of 135.64 in his five SA20 matches, the JSK skipper is a reliable batter at the top order and has proven his mettle across leagues. With his explosive 61 off 38 against MICT, he will be a force to reckon with for the Eastern Cape.

Moeen Ali

Moeen Ali is a valuable all-rounder for his national team, England, and has a robust folio of batting and bowling strength too across league cricket. Though he has played only 2 matches in SA20, the cricketer will be a key player for the side in the upcoming clash.

Jonny Bairstow

Having played a total of 5 matches, Bairstow boasts explosive figures of 60 and 43 off very few balls. He now caps at a strike rate of 131.93 and can be dangerous with the bat for Sunrisers if he finds his rhythm early.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape

Aiden Markram

Aiden Markram has bagged 243 runs in his 7 matches at a strike rate of 139.66. With figures of 82, 68, and 43, Markram can explode again and be lethal against the Super Kings for the upcoming match.

Marco Jansen

Marco Jansen is now the most valuable player for Sunrisers. He scalped 12 wickets and 142 runs in his 7 matches contributing with the bat and the ball equally. He will be a tough nut for the Joburg Super Kings as he remains potent to attack from both departments.

Liam Dawson

Liam Dawson is also a successful all-rounder for Eastern Cape having bagged 9 wickets in his 6 matches at an impressive economy rate of 5.84. He also shone with quickfire in 2 matches and can be a game-changer for his side.
