The Betway SA20 has officially unveiled its Team of the Tournament following a thrilling Season 4 that delivered high-quality cricket, dramatic finishes, and several standout individual performances.

Unsurprisingly, Sunrisers Eastern Cape, the reigning champions, dominate the XI with four selections, reflecting their all-round consistency throughout the tournament. Pretoria Capitals, who finished runners-up, contribute three players, while Paarl Royals earn two spots after another competitive campaign. MI Cape Town and Durban’s Super Giants are represented by one player each. Notably, Joburg Super Kings miss out entirely.

Only two overseas players feature in the side: Sherfane Rutherford, whose explosive batting kept Pretoria Capitals alive in crucial moments, and Sikandar Raza, who became a fan favourite at Paarl with his match-winning all-round displays.

Markram leads star-studded XI as de Kock, Rickelton and Baartman headline standout performers

The team will be led by Aiden Markram, who found form late in the season for Durban’s Super Giants and played one of the standout innings of the tournament with a sublime century at Kingsmead.

Behind the stumps, Quinton de Kock enjoyed a renaissance season for Sunrisers Eastern Cape. The veteran opener topped the batting charts with 390 runs at a strike rate of 148, while also producing exceptional glovework. Ryan Rickelton once again underlined his consistency, crossing the century mark twice and extending his record as the leading run-scorer in SA20 history.

The bowling attack is spearheaded by Anrich Nortje, back at full pace after injury setbacks, and Ottneil Baartman, who finished as the leading wicket-taker with 20 scalps, including a memorable hat-trick and five-wicket haul. Spin duties fall to Keshav Maharaj and Sikandar Raza, both of whom delivered control and wickets in pressure situations.

The selection panel comprised a star-studded group of former internationals and broadcasters, including AB de Villiers, Kevin Pietersen, Eoin Morgan, Dale Steyn, and others.

Zimbabwe all-rounder Sikandar Raza reminded cricket fans of Sri Lanka's legend Lasith Malinga. Raza modified his bowling action a little bit to dismiss Dewald Brevis. SA20 shared the whole incident from its official social media accounts. 

For the 25th match of the SA20 league, Pretoria Capitals was up against Paarl Royals (Pretoria Capitals vs. Paarl Royals). The first inning of the match was full of thrilling moments. Capitals went to bat first at the Centurion ground. They managed to get only 127 runs against all of their 10 wickets, as Royals did an exceptional job with their bowling department. 

Ottniel Baartman's hat-trick and 5-wicket haul were the highlights of the match, while Raza's bowling action came as a surprise for cricket fans and Dewald Brevis. Paarl Royals captain David Miller had deployed experienced all-rounder Sikandar Raza in the 12th over to break the dangerous-looking partnership of Shai Hope and Brevis. Raza didn't disappoint his captain by knocking out Brevis, who is known as 'Baby AB' for his swashbuckling batting skills.

To trick the batter instantly, the 39-year-old spin bowling all-rounder used a very low-arm delivery for the second ball of the over. The right-handed South African batter made some room to smack the ball on the off-side but ended by losing a wicket. Raza clean-bowled Dewald Brevis (21 runs in 20 balls). It should be noted that in this match, Sikandar Raza took 2 wickets for 29 runs in his quota of 4 overs. 

Royals eventually won the match without facing any strong difficulties. Paarl Royals achieved the target of 128 runs in 15.1 overs and defeated Pretoria Capitals by 6 wickets at the Centurion ground. With the win, the Royals have now topped the points table of the SA20 tournament. They have secured 24 points by winning 5 of 8 matches.

Paarl Royals registered a brilliant victory against Pretoria Capitals in the ongoing SA20 2025-26. The two teams played at SuperSport Park, Centurion, on January 15. The Capitals batted first after winning the toss.

Capitals were restricted to 127 runs in their innings, thanks to a brilliant spell from Ottneil Baartman. He bowled four overs, gave away only 16 runs, and took five wickets.

Baartman also achieved a hat-trick. He dismissed Andre Russell, Lizaad Williams, and Lungi Ngidi on the first three balls of the 19th over, becoming only the second player in SA20 history to take a hat-trick. He also became the first player from Paarl Royals to take a five-wicket haul in the tournament.

Watch the video here: 

Baartman Reflects on His Brilliant Performance

Paarl Royals chased down the target of 128 runs in just 15.1 overs, winning the match by six wickets. Ottneil Baartman was named Player of the Match for his outstanding bowling performance. After the game, he spoke about his spell.

“Just tried to hit the wickets hard. There was a little bounce, and I tried to use the conditions. I have been playing cricket for a while now, and someone needs to step up—that’s what happened today. Raza is a world-class bowler, cool and calm, and knows his game. On the hat-trick, I was thinking about it. It’s a good bowling surface. There were runs if the batters batted sensibly, but if you bowl a good length, wickets were available,” Baartman said during the post-match presentation.

Who Is Ottneil Baartman?

Baartman comes from Oudtshoorn, a town in the Western Cape province of South Africa. His mother wanted him to focus on studies, but his love for cricket made him follow the sport.

He moved to Bloemfontein and played three years with the Knights. However, the team did not offer him a new contract, so he joined the Dolphins for the next domestic season.

At the Dolphins, Baartman took 11 wickets in the CSA Provincial T20 Cup. In the CSA 2022-23 T20 Challenge, he took 15 wickets at an average of 14.40, becoming the second-highest wicket-taker of the tournament.

His strong domestic performance earned him a call-up to the South Africa national team. He made his Test debut in 2021 in a two-Test series against Pakistan.

In a recent T20I series against India, Baartman took four wickets in one match, becoming the second Proteas bowler to take four wickets against India in T20I cricket. He finished with figures of 4/24 as South Africa easily won the second T20I in Mullanpur.
