Aiden Markram Pumped For Sa20 Season 3: 'breath Of Fresh Air'

Playing for a greater cause than oneself. Caring for your team member. Honest and open communication. Never being bigger than a game.

And all of this being driven by a salt-of-the-earth individual from the Eastern Cape.

Sound familiar?

It certainly rings true, like the Springboks mantra that has seen Rassie Erasmus team win consecutive Rugby World Cup titles.

Its no surprise then that the Sunrisers Eastern Cape, who boast a similar team value system, have won back-to-back Betway SA20 titles and are gunning for a three-peat when they kick-start the third edition of South Africas premier T20 competition at what is expected to be a heaving St Georges Park tonight 5.30pm start against MI Cape Town.
