St George’s Park pitch report and stats ahead of Sunrisers Eastern Cape vs Joburg Super Kings SA20 2025

St George's Park is set to host the match between a team gaining momentum in the ongoing SA20, Sunrisers Eastern Cape, and a team struggling to maintain theirs, Joburg Super Kings.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape are having a mediocre season, which doesn’t suit the defending champions. They are currently third on the table with 15 points from six completed matches, having won three and lost three. However, their recent victory against Pretoria Capitals could give them the boost needed to build solid momentum.

On the other hand, Joburg Super Kings, who initially were on top, have now lost their momentum and failed to post big scores consistently. They currently sit in fourth position with 10 points, including two wins and one washed-out game. And now both teams are set to meet in a big SA20 clash.

The upcoming match at St George’s Park, Gqeberha, will be crucial for both teams. Take a look at the pitch report ahead of this important clash.

St George’s Park pitch report

The surface at St George’s Park generally favours bowlers over batters, particularly in the first 10 overs, where scoring runs has been a challenge during the ongoing SA20. Batters have struggled to time their shots as the ball doesn’t come onto the bat with full flow. To counter such conditions, batters need to spend more time in the middle rather than trying to play aggressively from the start.

In this SA20 competition, the run rate moves around 7, which is unusually low for T20 cricket. Teams winning the toss are likely to gain an advantage by batting first. While scoring runs may be difficult early on, posting a decent total can put the opposition under pressure. The pitch is expected to slow down further in the second innings, giving spinners an opportunity to make an impact.
