|December 22, 2025
THE much awaited fourth edition of the SA20, South Africa’s premier T20 competition, is set to get underway on Friday, and Independent Medias Ongama Gewabe selects Six Batters To Watch.
Lhuandre-dre Pretorius - Paarl Royals
There will be high expectations for the 19-year-old top-order batter, having topped the runs charts with 397 runs, including three half-centuries and a high score of 97 in his debut SA20 season.
This year, the youngster returns with a lot more experience having played international cricket across three formats. The Paarl Royals will be looking to the opening batter to get them to a flying start throughout the competition.
Heinrich Klaasen - Durban's Super Giants
Klaasen has been by far the best white ball batter in the last three to four years. This year, with a strong captain in Aiden Markram by his side, he is expected to be a dominant force for the Super Giants.
