Do Or Die For Durban's Super Giants As Fight To Stay In Sa20 Intensifies
Durbans Super Giants will have to go into their next four crucial fixtures throwing everything and the kitchen sink into achieving results, if they hope to finish the 2025 SA20 league in any place other than last.
Lance Kluseners team have been hesitant with the bat this season, with many star players failing to put runs on the board, or even get off the mark for that matter. The weather in Durban has also added to the Giants' woes.
Tuesday nights game against MI Cape Town, which was a chance for Durban to put some much-needed points on the board and improve their track record, was unfortunately rained out.
After their loss to Sunrisers Eastern Cape on Sunday, Klusener said DSG have top-quality batters but that they just could not kick on. When they did, as in their first match, the team put 200 runs on the board.
There have also been questions about DSGs batting tactics and how low down big hitters like Quinton de Kock and Heinrich Klaasen are in the order. For a side that has one of the most destructive batsmen in the T20 format, one could question why he only comes in at No 7 and not 3 or 4.
