Team Previews
Durban's Super Giants
The Durban's Super Giants have been the team to contend with in this edition of the SA20. They won seven of their ten games in the league stage and qualified as the number one team. As a result of their consistent show, the Giants will get two chances to make it to the tournament's final. Even if they lose here against the Eastern Cape, they can play in the Qualifier 2.
Sunrisers Eastern Cape
The Sunrisers Eastern Cape have also displayed excellent form in the tournament. Much like their opponents for the game, the Sunirsers have also won seven of their ten games. But they finished second in the points table as one of their games was abandoned and, as a result, had one point less than the table toppers. However, being in the top two will also allow them to get two shots at making it to the summit clash of the tournament.
