SA20 2023: Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Pretoria Capitals – Match Prediction

Sunrisers Eastern Cape will begin their SA20 2023 campaign against Pretoria Capitals at St. George’s Park, Gqeberha on Thursday. Both teams will look to kickstart their season on a high and get off to a winning start.

Aiden Markram will lead Sunrisers Eastern Cape but the team lacks the experience as well as depth in their squad. Thus, Markram will have to make the most of the resources he has on offer and get the best out of his players.

The bowling onus will be on Marco Jansen, who can breathe down the neck of the opposition batters with the help of the extra bounce he can generate with the help of his height. However, he will want support from Sisanda Magala and James Fuller.

On the other hand, Pretoria Capitals, who will be led by Wayne Parnell, has better balance in their squad. There are players like Rilee Rossouw, Phillip Salt, Kusal Mendis, Anrich Nortje, Adil Rashid, and James Neesham, who have the ability to win the match on their own for Pretoria Capitals.

The Capitals will want to come up with a collective show and hit the straps in their tournament’s opener.

Match Prediction: Given the team’s balance, Pretoria Capitals will enter the contest as favorites against Sunrisers Eastern Cape.
