The Pretoria Capitals are looking more balanced as a team and they’ll start as the favourites. But, the Sunrisers Eastern Cape have many big names in their line-up and they are not to be taken lightly.
Aiden Markram: Aiden Markram will be the best captaincy pick for this game. He will bat in the middle order and may bowl an over or two of his off-spin. Markam can score big on his day.
Phil Salt: Phil Salt will be an excellent captaincy choice. He is a very aggressive batter and can take the game away from the opposition in just a few overs. Salt will fetch points from wicketkeeping as well.
Tristan Stubbs: Tristan Stubbs is an exciting young player. He is known for hitting big sixes for fun. He can bowl a few overs as well if required. Stubbs will be a key player for his side and he can fetch plenty of points in fantasy cricket in this game.
Jon-Jon Smuts: Jon-Jon Smuts will be an excellent differential pick in this game. He will bat in the top order and is expected to bowl a few overs as well. Smuts is a consistent performer in the domestic circuit and will be a top fantasy pick.
Sisanda Magala: Sisanda Magala is amongst the best pace bowlers in the South African domestic circuit. He bowls mainly in the death overs and is handy with the bat as well. Magala will be an ideal differential pick.
Tom Abell: Tom Abell will bat down the order which affects his fantasy value. He won’t get to face enough deliveries to make an impact with the bat. He will be our player to avoid in this game.
