Markram has already built a reputation as one of the finest leaders in the competition, guiding Sunrisers Eastern Cape to back-to-back titles in 2023 and 2024. He also holds the reins of South Africa\u2019s T20I side, further underlining his leadership credentials.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ahead of the season, Markram parted ways with Sunrisers Eastern Cape and became one of the most sought-after players at the SA20 auction earlier this month.

With Lance Klusener continuing as head coach and Markram now at the helm, hopes are high that the Durban Super Giants can finally break through and lift their maiden SA20 trophy in the 2025-26 season.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
