Season 3 was brutal, two wins from ten and a spot at the bottom. But that’s history. This is a new chapter, and the headline is massive: Aiden Markram, Proteas T20 captain and back-to-back SA20 champion, joins Durban in a blockbuster R14 million deal. Around him, the firepower is fierce, Jos Buttler, Sunil Narine, and wildcard Heinrich Klaasen bring the heat. Add strike weapons Gerald Coetzee, rising star Kwena Maphaka, and Afghan mystery spinner Noor Ahmad, and suddenly this squad looks stacked. With Lance Klusener still calling the shots, the Giants aren’t just back, they’re ready to shake Kingsmead to its core.
