PRE vs EAC: Match Preview:

Pretoria Capitals made it to the finals after finishing first in the league stage and comprehensively beating Paarl Royals in the semi-finals, that too without their regular captain Wayne Parnell in the last 3 games. While their top run scorer Will Jacks (270 runs at 201.49 SR) was ruled out after 7 matches, Phil Salt has been an explosive opener with 230 runs at a strike rate of 154.39. Stand-in captain Theunis de Bruyn has scored 227 runs while Kusal Mendis has been consistent with 202 runs in just 6 matches. 

Anrich Nortje has been the top wicket-taker of the tournament with 18 wickets to his name and has been a major cause of Pretoria Capitals' success this season. Eathan Bosch has registered 14 wickets and looked dangerous lately while James Neesham and Adil Rashid have managed 13 wickets each. 

Sunrisers Eastern Cape are also coming with a thrilling win against a sturdy Joburg Super Kings side in the semi-finals. Aiden Markram has been the top scorer for Sunrisers this season and is coming in with a red-hot form, scoring his maiden T20 ton in the semis. The Sunrisers skipper has scored 340 runs in the season, followed by JJ Smuts who has 202 runs. This shows that batting is mainly dependent on Aiden Markram. Adam Rossington has also impressed at times as an opener and has 189 runs at a strike rate of 160.16. 

Roelof van der Merwe has been exceptional for the Sunrisers with 16 wickets in 8 innings, at an excellent economy of 5.33. Sisanda Magala has picked up 12 wickets while Aiden Markram and Ottniel Baartman have managed 10 wickets each.
