Topmost Picks for SEC vs JSK Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Sunrisers Eastern Cape

• Aiden Markram – The right-handed skipper comes into this match only one week after his brilliant century for South Africa in their second innings total of 176 against India.
• Liam Dawson – The left-arm spinner has taken 193 wickets in T20 cricket and dismissed a batter in each of his last two BBL appearances in December.

Top Picks – Joburg Super Kings

• Faf du Plessis – The right-handed opener had a top score of 113 not out in last year’s SA20 and he will be looking to get off to a flying start as he aims to improve on his average of 41.00 from that tournament.
• Imran Tahir – Even at 44 years of age, the spinner is still a real threat in T20 cricket. He has played in 391 games and taken 487 T20 wickets across his career

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for SEC vs JSK Dream11 Team:

Adam Rossington, Tristan Stubbs, Dawid Malan, Jordan Hermann, Faf du Plessis, Reeza Hendricks, Marco Jansen(VC), Aiden Markram(C), Romario Shepherd, Gerald Coetzee, Nandre Burger

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

SEC vs JSK Probable Winners:

This tournament, particularly the opening match between two strong teams, will pique the interest of fans all over the world. Sunrisers had put together another strong squad, but the late withdrawals of Jamie Overton and Sisanda Magala have left their bowling attack looking a little vulnerable. As a result, we believe the Johannesburg Super Kings will get off to a winning start. Considering the team combination, Joburg Super Kings is expected to win this match.
