A loud cheer from the SunRisers Eastern Cape as they lift the trophy. SA20 has been an impressive league with each and everyone following their favourite teams closely. It was supposed to get the attention of the locals but has also grabbed international attention. This is a huge day for South African Domestic Cricket as said by Wayne Parnell. This is just the start of something amazing for the fans of South Africa and its cricket
Aiden Markram (captain, Sunrisers Eastern Cape): I don't think many people gave us a chance before the tournament started. Was a bit up and down at the start but the character came out at the end. (On Roelof van der Merwe) He has. I have spent some time with him at the Spartans before he left. After we lost a couple of games in the beginning, needed someone like him to change the momentum. We were thinking how good it would be to have a Rosso (Adam Rossington) special and we are incredibly happy for him to have done that. Thoroughly enjoyed it. When you have players who are ready to put their bodies on the line, it becomes pretty easy. Proud of each and everyone in our team including those in the back-room. That crowd at St.George's Park is something to cherish. Hope we did them proud.
Wayne Parnell (captain, Pretoria Capitals): It's the first SA20 and it has been a great tournament. It is a special day for South African domestic cricket. Would've loved to win this match but credit to SunRisers Eastern Cape. We beat them twice in the league but were beware of the threat they possess. We were 25-30 runs short, Rossington came in the powerplay and took the bull by the horns. The message from the first day is to be brave, we had one no-result game. Everyone's character has impressed me. There is a lot of respect. Everyone left their egos at the door and played the best cricket
Aiden Markram, Player of the Season: (Hundred in the semi) That was a belief-booster for me. We were in a spot of bother and was great to come out of that. (Whether he expected to be so good with the ball) Not at all. You almost try to do a job here and there. Overall, very happy with how it went. Grateful to get this award. (About his father and family) He has been my side all the way. Can't thank them enough. Extremely grateful for their support!
Roelof van der Merwe, Bowler of the season: It's an unbelievable feeling. I don't know where to start but everyone stood up and it was a proper team effort. (About Anrich Nortje) He bowls absolute rockets, bowls really well and is an asset for any team he plays. I was supposed to help the team in the next but here I am helping the team and taking them over the line
Jos Buttler, Batter of the Season: (Recorded video) Hi guys, had a fantastic time at the inaugural SA20. Thanks to the Paarl Royals. Hoping to be back next year for hopefully a bigger and better tournament!
Eathan Bosch is the rising star in this edition of SA20. Here's what he has to say: It's been an awesome tournament to be a part of. It allows you to see what you are lacking while rubbing shoulders with the best in the world. Gutted to be ending up on the wrong side but you win some and you lose some. Not so used to playing in front of a huge crowd but a huge thanks to all in South Africa who have come out and supported the league
Adrian Birrell, Sunrisers Eastern Cape coach: We are absolutely thrilled. Fabulous month and a half. To win the trophy is fabulous. Absolutely fantastic, we lost the first two games, had to re-group, make some tough calls. I haven't done much, everything has been done for me
SunRisers Eastern Cape are the winners of the Spirit of Cricket award. This is awarded to the teams who have shown respect for the game and towards the umpires and their opponents
