Defending champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape (SEC) will host Pretoria Capitals (PC) in match number 17 of the SA20 2025 season on Wednesday, January 22. The match marks the sixth respective outing for both sides. The action is slated to commence from 9:00 PM IST onwards at the St George’s Park in Gqeberha.
Ahead of this game, here is a look at the Dream11 predictions, the fantasy cricket tips, the pitch report and the best predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.
SEC vs PC, SA20 2025 Preview
The Sunrisers Eastern Cape sustained three demoralizing defeats to start off their title-defence during the initial stages of the SA20 2025 season. However, Aiden Markram’s troops bounced back with two huge wins over, both against Durban’s Super Giants to lift themselves up on the SA20 2025 points table.
In the batting department, captain Markram seems to be in good nick off late but the senior South African batter has received little-to-no assistance from others. Moreover, fast bowling all-rounder Marco Jansen has emerged as Sunrisers’ second highest run-maker this season to leave behind several specialist batsmen. With the ball, England-based fast bowler Richard Gleeson has taken eight wickets so far at an impressive average of 14.25.
The Pretoria Capitals team, led by Rilee Rossouw, has registered one win and sustained two defeats from three completed fixtures. With their remaining two games ending up as no-results, the Capitals’ NRR currently reads 0.569. The batting line-up of the Pretoria Capitals has primarily revolved around the blistering form of attacking openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Will Jacks. Kyle Verreynne has also racked up crucial runs at a good clip from his end. As underwhelming performance from fast bowlers continue to haunt the Capitals, left-arm spinner Senuran Muthusamy has been able to demonstrate his wicket-taking excellence.
