There is very little between these two sides. We give Sunrisers Eastern Cape a narrow edge, at 50% to win.

The toss could matter here. Chasing has been the better option at this ground, so the captain who calls right may well choose to bowl first. We expect a first-innings score of around 150, and anything well above that should put the batting side in control.
