JOH vs EAC Dream11 Prediction: All you need to know about the second semi-final of the SA20 between Joburg Super Kings and Sunrisers Eastern Cape.
Johannesburg Super Kings finished in the 2nd position after the league stage. They had a poor start to the tournament but they picked up the pace at the right time and will be very confident coming into this game. The batters are in excellent form while the bowlers have been very consistent. JSK will look to win this game and seal a spot in the finals.
Sunrisers, on the other hand, finished in the 3rd position. Their recent form is not that good but they’ll look to bounce back strongly. Aiden Markram has failed to convert his starts into big scores while Tristan Stubbs has failed to get going. The other batters have been a little hot and cold. Sunrisers will look to settle the score against the Super Kings in this game.

Temba Bavuma: Temba Bavuka will be an excellent differential pick. He has been in great touch recently and will be a key batter for the Sunrisers. Bavuma scored 50 runs in the last match against Johannesburg.
Lizaad Williams: Lizaad Williams bowled really well in the last game. He was bowling at a very high speed and will be an ideal differential pick in fantasy cricket. He picked up one wicket against MI Cape Town.
Sibonelo Makhanya: Sibonelo Makhanya will bat in the lower middle order. He hasn’t got enough opportunities to show his skills and his current form is not that good either.
