It is proving to be an interesting SA20 season so far with a couple of teams blowing hot and cold, one running away with the competition and one other finding form just in the nick of time. The bottom two haven’t been able to justify their squads and will hope to finish on a high but this one is about the Joburg Super Kings, who have lost a bit of form after a smashing start to their campaign. The Super Kings with the enforcements this year looked set to probably challenge the top two, which they still can, but haven’t been themselves having lost three matches in a row.
The batters aren’t providing enough apart from one or two and the lack of collective effort with the bat is hurting the Men in Yellow. Yes, the bowlers have also gone for runs in these games but they still have been able to pull their weight in the games where batters just haven’t turned up. The Super Kings will face the Sunrisers Eastern Cape once again after going down against them a couple of days ago in Gqeberha.
The two-time champions are on the upsurge with four wins in a row after starting the tournament with three consecutive losses. It has been a comeback and a half, which is nothing new for the Sunrisers and every time they have such a run, they have ended up winning the tournament. It took some time for them to figure out their combination and balance, once they have done that, there is no looking back and Super Kings will need to put their A-game out to get past them.
