Record of consistency

The current edition marks the fourth season of SA20, and remarkably, Sunrisers Eastern Cape have reached the final every single time. Since the league’s launch in 2023, the franchise has either lifted the trophy or finished second each year.

The team claimed the title in the inaugural season by beating Pretoria Capitals, followed it up with another championship win against Durban Super Giants in season two, and settled for a runners-up finish in the third edition.

Final scheduled for January 25

The 2025-26 SA20 final will see Sunrisers Eastern Cape take on Pretoria Capitals on January 25. The summit clash is scheduled to begin at 7:00 PM IST and will be played in Cape Town.

The two sides secured their spots after an intense playoff week, with the Capitals advancing directly through Qualifier 1 and the Sunrisers sealing their place after a dominant win over Paarl Royals in Qualifier 2.
