It's getting all heated up in the SA20 2025, where Joburg Super Kings (JSK) will looking to take revenge on the SunRisers Eastern Cape (SEC) on 26th January, Sunday at the Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg in Match 22 to be played from 7 PM IST. Super Kings have been hurt by the SunRisers show during their previous encounter in Gqeberha.

Joburg Super Kings

Losing their way after starting brilliantly, the Joburg Super Kings have been rattled by the plethora of injuries that have hampered their SA20 campaign with three consecutive losses. They started brilliantly with two wins but unfortunately couldn't win the third after rain interrupted their plans. In six games so far, the Super Kings have 10 points with two wins and three losses as they are positioned fourth on the table.

Jonny Bairstow has fought hard for them with the bat in two tough situations, while Devon Conway played a handy 43-run knockoff 40 deliveries against the SunRisers in the last game. Skipper Faf du Plessis is getting starts but is not able to convert them into big scores. Bowling isn't that bad after all, with Lutho Sipamla and Hardus Viljoen getting one apiece with Evan Jones getting two to his name. Moreover, Imran Tahir has been consistent and economical throughout.

SunRisers Eastern Cape

Conversely, the two-time and defending champions, SunRisers Eastern Cape, inspired by Aiden Markram, have been nothing but brilliant with their tactics and class after their initial downfall. Their campaign has been resurrected with effective contributions coming from every bowler and most of their batters. Marco Jansen has been the shining light for Eastern Cape, displaying excellent bowling skills in both the powerplay and death overs.

Versus Super Kings, they posted 165 on the board with David Bedingham 37 (34), Aiden Markram's fighting 43 from 29 and Tristan Stubbs' 22-ball 35* doing the job. Meanwhile, their bowling has proved to be quite effective, with pace trio of Jansen (2/19), Richard Gleeson (2/37) and Ottneil Baartman (2/32) doing their bit.

Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg  - Pitch Report For Match 22 Of SA20 2025

The pitch at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg is highly suitable for batting, especially chasing big totals. Fast bowlers with genuine pace generate extra bounce and seam movement, causing difficulty for batters early on. However, due to Johannesburg's high altitude, the ball travels higher and further, which allows the batters to play their shots comfortably. Spinners, in recent years, are getting some turn from the surface if it is dry. Looking at the previous record, teams generally choose to bowl first here, as chasing is easier.

Top 3 Captain and Vice-Captain Choices For JSK vs SEC

3. Aiden Markram

Why Will Aiden Markram Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-Captain?

Tactically astute Aiden Markram is the primary reason for Sunrisers Eastern Cape's campaign turnaround after three early losses. Markram has often batted with the ideology of putting the team first before himself, as he would ensure to bat till the end of the innings.

Often, when Sunrisers struggle with the bat, their skipper puts his hand up to bail them out of the tricky situation. He already has 243 runs at a strike rate of 139.65 in 7 matches, where he averages 48.60 with the bat in this tournament. Overall, he has 4,308 runs in his career spanning 178 matches.

2. Jonny Bairstow

Why Will Jonny Bairstow Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-Captain?

England's dynamic wicketkeeper batter Jonny Bairstow has done seemingly well for Joburg Super Kings in this SA20, considering the performance of other batters. 157 runs at a strike rate of 131.93 while averaging 39.25 in five innings are what his stats read. He is a genuine big-hitter, so conditions in Johannesburg will surely help his cause to go big from the start.

Bairstow has high knowledge of the bowlers from the SunRisers camp, and he can efficiently execute his plans if he gets set. The right-hander has 5,310 runs in 223 games for different sides, with his striking rate over 137. He is a good choice as Captain or Vice-Captain because of his ability to smash the ball a long way back.

1. Marco Jansen

Why Will Marco Jansen Be A Good Choice As The Captain Or Vice-Captain?

Impressive, outstanding and simply majestic with his deceptive pace bowling, Marco Jansen has turned out to be the most feared bowler in this SA20. Displaying his accuracy with the ball, the lanky pacer has often got batters strangled with his tight line and length. Jansen's significant asset is his height, which makes it difficult for batters to judge the length perfectly.

The left-armer has 12 wickets from seven games at an outstanding economy rate of 6.11, where he averages only 13.75 with the ball. While not to forget, he also has 142 runs with the bat, as his strike rate exceeds 130. Red-hot Jansen is a great option to be picked as Captain or Vice-Captain.
