Notably, both teams will come to this game after their last match was abandoned due to rain. Meanwhile, in the first leg, Joburg Super Kings came out on top as they defeated the Sunrisers by five wickets. In the game, Gerald Coetzee and Aaron Phangiso picked up four wickets each to destroy the Sunrisers’ batting but things have changed as Phangiso is now suspended because of his bowling action. Despite so, Joburg will back themselves to get the win when these two teams meet once again. However, Sunrisers will be eager to take the revenge of the first leg.
