Eastern Cape vs South Western Districts Match Prediction & Betting Tips

ECI vs SWD T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, CSA Provincial T20 Cup 2022

Eastern Cape will take on South Western Districts at Buffalo Park, East London. Match 6 in Pool B of the CSA Provincial T20 Cup 2022/23 begins at 14:30 local time on Sunday 2nd October.

Eastern Cape 

After their opening match against local rivals Northern Cape was cancelled, Eastern Cape had to deal with another cancellation in their game against Limpopo on Saturday. All of Eastern Cape’s players should be fully fit and desperate to get their tournament underway.

ECI Batting

28 year old Marco Marais is a very consistent batter with averages above 30 across all three formats. In T20 cricket alone, he has hit nine half-centuries and two hundreds. Eastern Cape will look to give him as much of the strike as possible.

ECI Bowling

We expect left-arm spinner Tumelo Simelane to cause batters problems on any pitch across this tournament. Alongside him, all of the pace bowlers should be made fully aware that the overhead and pitch conditions are in favour of quick bowlers.

ECI Form

Eastern Cape are still searching for their first win over the last two seasons of this competition.

South Western Districts

After reaching the quarter-final stage last year, South Western Districts had high hopes of progressing further in the tournament last year but so far the rain has stopped any wins or strong performances in this competition.

SWD Batting

26 year old Matthew Christensen enjoys his T20 cricket and averages just under 25 in this format. Although he has scored only one T20 half-century, he often helps his teams get off to a good start and bats at a high strike-rate.

SWD Bowling

After being one of the bowling stars of the 2022 CSA Provincial T20, Hershell America is desperate to get out on to the pitch to play this match. The 28 year old medium pacer will enjoy having a pitch with some dampness and some life in it.

SWD Form

South Western Districts lost their last two completed games last year but they have players who have been in strong form across other format.s

ECI vs SWD Pitch Report

The match will be played at Buffalo Park, East London. We expect to see uneven bounce and a very slow outfield on this pitch.
