SA20 2025-26 Match 24: SEC vs JSK head-to-head, pitch report & predicted playing XIs

The Sunrisers Eastern Cape will take on the Joburg Super Kings in Match 24 of SA20 2025-26 at St George’s Park, Gqeberha, on Wednesday, January 14. These two sides were supposed to meet earlier in the season, but rain washed out that game soon after the toss.

The Sunrisers Eastern Cape are coming into this match after a close loss against the Durban Super Giants in the final over. So far, they have won three matches, lost two, and seen two games abandoned due to rain. With the league stage nearing its end, this match is very important for Tristan Stubbs’ team as a win would greatly improve their chances of reaching the playoffs.

The Joburg Super Kings started the season strongly by winning their first three matches. However, their momentum slowed down due to rain interruptions and recent defeats. Two of their matches were washed out, and they also lost two of their last three games against MI Cape Town. JSK will be eager to bounce back and stay in the playoff race.
