PLAYOFFS PERMUTATIONS: HOW JSK, MICT OR DSG CAN TAKE THE FINAL SPOT

Betway SA20 Season 4 has delivered some exceptional cricket and it has now come down to the business end with three teams still battling it out for the fourth and final playoff spot with only two matches remaining.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape host MI Cape Town at St George’s Park on Sunday before Joburg Super Kings travel to Boland Park for their clash against Paarl Royals on Monday.

Pretoria Capitals, Paarl Royals and Sunrisers Eastern Cape have all qualified leaving Durban’s Super Giants, Joburg Super Kings and MI Cape Town jostling for one position.

We break down each team’s potential path to clinch the coveted fourth spot.

JOBURG SUPER KINGS (17 points)

It’s straightforward for JSK. Their clash against Paarl Royals is a virtual quarterfinal. Win and they eliminate both DSG and MI Cape Town, regardless of Sunday’s result at St George’s Park.

Maximum potential points: 22 (4 wins)

MI CAPE TOWN (14 points)

Must beat Sunrisers Eastern Cape with a bonus point to move higher than DSG on number of wins. Then hope JSK lose to Paarl Royals.

Maximum potential points: 19 (4 wins)

DURBAN'S SUPER GIANTS (19 points)

Lance Klusener’s side have completed their round-robin matches and their fate is no longer in their own hands.

They need Sunrisers to either beat MI Cape Town or deny them a bonus point to remain in contention. They also need Paarl Royals to beat Joburg Super Kings.

Maximum points: 19 (3 wins)
