After ruining Paarl Royals’ party in the Eliminator by recording their nine-wicket win, Joburg Super Kings will be clashing with Durban Super Giants in the Qualifier 2 of the SA20 Tournament on Thursday at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. 

Joburg Super Kings had a great outing against Paarl Royals with their pacers Sam Cook and Nandre Burger claiming seven wickets among themselves. Their successful outing also received substantial contribution from 44-year-old Imran Tahir, taking two screamers ,one while running back and second diving down the pitch to send Van Buuren and Dane Vilas. 

Moving into this game, Super Kings would hope to make their way into the final to see already qualified Sunrisers Eastern Cape. Durban Super Giants, on the other hand, will enter this game on the back of their defeat against Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the Qualifier 1. They would hope to do good with the likes of Quinton de Kock, Heinrich Klaasen and Matthew Breetzke in the team.
