Head to Head
These sides have met five times before with the Sunrisers winning the first four encounters. However, in the opening SA20 game of 2025, MI Cape Town thrashed the Sunrisers by 97 runs.
MI Cape Town Form
MI Cape Town are second on the table after seven games with four wins, two defeats and a no result. They have a game in hand on the Royals at the top but will need their neighbours to slip up in a few games to catch them.
Last time out, MI Cape Town defeated the Durban Super Giants on home soil. Bowling first, they held the Super Giants to 149 in 20 overs.
Ryan Rickelton continued his good form in the chase, scoring 63 at the top of the order to anchor the Cape Town side to victory with more than five overs to spare. George Linde scored a blistering 29 off 8 balls to secure the bonus point towards the end.

With three games to go, MICT have some room for error, but they will know a victory here secures them a place in the playoffs. Expect them to field a very strong side.
Sunrisers Eastern Cape Form
The Sunrisers have had a strange season as they go for their third successive title. They lost their opening three games, then won four in a row before losing in their last fixture.
Currently, the Sunrisers are third, two points off MI Cape Town but they have played a game more. The Sunrisers had early season issues with their batting, but they sorted that out before collapsing to 118 all out against the Super Kings over the weekend.
David Bedingham scored 48 of those runs while Tristan Stubbs added 37. In total, only three batsmen got over the 10-run mark. The Super Kings cruised to victory in 14 overs for the loss of just one wicket.

The Sunrisers are well placed to make the playoffs but will need at least one result from their remaining two games. I don’t see them making too many changes to their side.
Verdict
MI Cape Town to retain their unbeaten home record with Ryan Rickelton tipped to top score at Newlands.
For the Sunrisers, David Bedingham has found some form, so he carries some value.
