Sunrisers win toss and bat against Royals

Sunrisers Eastern Cape captain, Tristan Stubbs, won the toss and chose to bat first in their SA20 match against the Paarl Royals at St.George’s Park on Wednesday afternoon.

The home side are sitting pretty at the top of the log with 10 points from two bonus-point victories to open their campaign, including a monster 143-run thrashing of the Royals at Boland Park three days ago.
