It's time for action between the Capes of South Africa as MI Cape Town (MICT) will challenge the defending champions SunRisers Eastern Cape (SEC) in the SA20 2025 Match 25 to be played at the Newlands Stadium, Cape Town. This game will take place from 9 PM IST on 29th January, so don't miss the action.

Currently second in the table, MI Cape Town have 21 points to its name after playing seven matches while winning four of them with a healthy NRR of 1.83. They are coming off a comfortable bonus point win against Durban's Super Giants, where they finished the game before the completion of 15 overs. Durban batted first and posted 149 on the board as Cape Town bowlers Trent Boult and George Linde produced effective spells to restrict them to a lower total. Opener Ryan Rickelton played a blistering 63-run knock from just 41 deliveries, with support from Dewald Brevis and Linda doing the finishing job for them.

Conversely, after starting poorly, SunRisers Eastern Cape are in third position with four wins out of their eight games played so far, as they have 19 points to their name with as many as three bonus points. Previously, they faced an embarrassing defeat against Joburg Super Kings by nine wickets, who finished the game in just 14 overs after the Aiden Markram-led side were bowled out for 118. David Bedingham scored 48 off 40 deliveries, Tristan Stubbs' 38-ball 37, and Marco Jansen's 18-ball 22 were the only double-digit scores, as five of the batters scored ducks in that innings.

Newlands Stadium - Pitch Report For Match 25 Of SA20 2025

The pitch at the Newlands Stadium in Cape Town is a decent one for batting, with pacers getting movement early on in the innings. In the previous game here, spinners got some help but only in the initial overs, after which they did not get anything from the surface. Two out of three games played here have been won by the team chasing, hence, it can be concluded that batting gets easier in the second half. Overall, a score in excess of 170 is likely to be scored in the first innings. The team winning the toss will likely bowl first, considering the chasing team gets the advantage here.

Top 3 Captain and Vice-Captain Choices For MICT vs SEC:

1. Ryan Rickelton

Blazing South African batter Ryan Rickelton is a hard-hitting operator who wreaks havoc in the powerplay for his side with the bat. Rickelton's stats seem outstanding this season with 178 runs at a strike rate of 183.50 while averaging 44.50 in four games he has featured in so far. Rickelton's 111 T20 career matches have produced 2,889 runs with a healthy strike rate of 139.90 at an average of 29.18. His quality at the top is unmatched, with runs all around the ground, and when he bats, he bats deep into the innings.

2. Marco Jansen

His ability to score runs is as good as his ability to pick wickets in every phase of the game, all-rounder Marco Jansen is one of the most valuable commodities in the world of cricket right now and definitely is counted in top all-rounders in all formats. Jansen has produced many match-defining spells with the ball this season, where he has bailed his team out of trouble on numerous occasions. 12 wickets this season at an outstanding average of 15.83 while an incredible economy rate of 6.12 is a great testimony of his bowling prowess, whereas 164 runs with the bat in this SA20 reflects his quality batting.

3. Rassie van der Dussen

MI Cape Town's other opener, Rassie van der Dussen, has been in excellent form, too, with staggering figures of 252 runs at an average of 50.40 while striking at 128.57, making him an outstanding prospect. Rassie fires at the top more often than not, while his ability to play the anchor in challenging situations reaps him reward. The right-hander is one of the most dependable players when it comes to scoring runs, providing a solid platform for his side to cash in later when batting becomes a little easier.
