The players and the umpires make their way out to the middle.
Pitch Report: Talking about the dimensions, 62m and 57m square boundaries and 75m down the ground. The area they would want to target would be mid-on because of the stiff breeze blowing across that side. It's a different kind of surface, they have taken most of the grass out. There will be some turn and grip for the spinners. I think it will play well overall and it won't change much in rthe second half, reckons Shaun Pollock.
Keshav Maharaj: It looks fine, probably we would have batted first as well. Hopefully, we can restrict the Sunrisers to a chaseable total. We have had a chat after our last game, back to simple basics at Kingsmead and that has given us a lot of success. Two changes for us.
Aiden Markram: We are gonna bat first, looks a pretty dry surface. Hopefully, it stays dry

Sunrisers Eastern Cape have won the toss and have opted to bat
16:30 Local Time, 14:30 GMT, 20:00 IST: The SA20 is up and running and we have another high-octane clash coming your way! It’s the fifth placed Durban Super Giants taking on the bottom-placed Sunrisers Eastern Cape at Kingsmead. DSG begun their campaign with a nail-biting last-ball win against the Capitals. The reverse fixture between the same two sides got abandoned due to rain. Coming to DSG’s last game, they crumbled under pressure in the run-chase against the Super Kings. SEC, on the other hand, have had a gloomy start to their campaign, having lost three games in a row. The defending champions need to get their act together if they are to turn things around for themselves. Momentum is the name of the game in a dynamic format like T20 and both teams will be eager to notch up a win.
