Although three of the top four batters for Pretoria Capitals made single figure scores, the big innings from Phil Salt produced the necessary momentum and foundation at the top of the order. There are no injury worries ahead of this re-match with the Sunrisers.
PRE Key Players
- Phil Salt - the English keeper-batter hit 11 fours in his unbeaten innings on Thursday and he will be relishing the opportunity to carry on where he left-off against the same bowlers in this game.
- Jimmy Neesham - The New Zealand all-rounder contributed with bat and ball in the opening game. He hit 37 runs before getting the important wicket of Aiden Markram.
- Anrich Nortje - Irrespective of the format or venue, Nortje is a wicket taking bowler. He dismissed the dangerous Jordan Cox and Tristan Stubbs in the first match.

Pretoria Capitals produced a strong performance with both bat and ball in Match 3 but there is still plenty of room for improvement in this game.

Although Sunrisers Eastern Cape were beaten by 23 runs by Pretoria Capitals on Friday, there were plenty of positives for the team management to take away in both the bowling and batting departments. We expect the same XI to be selected for this game.
EAC Key Players

- Ottniel Baartman - the right arm medium fast bowler dismissed two important batters, Theunis de Bruyn and Jimmy Neesham on Thursday. He will be the most threatening of the attack in this game also.
