SA20 2023, Match 27, Joburg Super Kings vs Sunrisers Eastern Cape: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, and Live Streaming Details

Joburg Super Kings and Sunrisers Eastern Cape will face each other in Match No. 27 of the SA20 2023 on Sunday, February 5. The match will take place at the Wanderers in Johannesburg.

The Sunrisers, led by Aiden Markram, started their campaign with two back-to-back defeats at the hands of Wayne Parnell’s Pretoria Capitals. But since then, they have climbed the ladder and are placed second in the table with 19 points and a net run rate of +0.508.

However, if they end up losing their final game, they will be in danger of getting knocked out of the competition. Their previous match against Durban’s Super Giants couldn’t produce a result due to rain.

The Super Kings, led by Faf du Plessis, on the other hand, are precariously placed fourth in the table with 18 points and a net run rate of -0.923. A victory would take them into the second spot below the Capitals, but a loss could put them in a whole lot of trouble.

Their previous game against David Miller’s Paarl Royals didn’t produce a result due to rain. The Super Kings’ bowlers need to be a tad cautious in their next game as Jason Roy put pressure on them and exposed a few of their vulnerabilities.
