MICT vs SEC, SA20 2025 Preview
The MI Cape Town team, under the leadership of Rashid Khan, has secured four wins this SA20 2025 season at an expense of just two defeats from seven matches (one no-result). The Cape Town has accumulated 21 points so far this tournament and they are currently occupying the number two spot on the SA20 2025 points table with a formidable NRR of 1.837. They started off their campaign with an emphatic 97-run win over Sunrisers in the opening match of the competition. Rashid Khan and co. have also won each of their previous two games with convincing margins to jump to the playoffs reckoning. Senior man Rassie van der Dussen continues to remain MI Cape Town’s most prolific run-maker off late alongside Ryan Rickelton. The team’s bowling composite, however, has struggled to come up with a collective performance.
The Sunrisers Eastern Cape franchise started off its title-defense with three humiliating defeats upfront this SA20 2025 season. However, under the leadership of Aiden Markram, the Sunrisers rebooted its campaign with four successive NRR boosting wins, before falling short against Joburg Super Kings a couple of days ago. At the moment, the Sunrisers’ NRR reads a topsy-turvy -0.143 as they have garnered 19 points from eight matches. Barring Markram, and all-rounder Marco Jansen to some extent, other batters have struggled to come up clutch for the Sunrisers off late. Their bowling attack, on the other hand, continues to thrive with the prolific wicket-taking spree of Jansen, Richard Gleeson, Liam Dawson and Ottneil Baartman.
