Durban's Super Giants find themselves in a tough spot in the ongoing SA20 having not won a game since their opening fixture in the tournament, close to three weeks ago. Last year's runners-up have had a couple of washed-out matches and hence are still alive in the race of making it to the playoffs. The Super Giants have been in a must-win zone for a couple of games but this will be last as a loss on Monday, their chances will cease to exist, with a game to go and Paarl Royals, the table-toppers will not be an easy opposition.
The Super Giants got their key batter Heinrich Klaasen strike form in the last game and that would be one aspect in which they will be glad that they did some improvement but they will have to keep digging in as the batting was once again the reason for their defeat against the MI Cape Town despite a couple of half-centuries. The Royals don't care about a thing in the world. They have already made it to the playoffs and now their only concern is to stay in the top two, which will be confirmed more or less if they win on Monday.
The Super Giants have a great unit at their disposal but just haven't been able to put out performances. Can Keshav Maharaj and Co dust off themselves to have a sparkling farewell.
