Lucknow Super Giants' middle-order anchor, Aiden Markram, delivered a spectacular performance in the SA20 league, smashing a brilliant century that secured a crucial bonus-point victory for Durban’s Super Giants (DSG) against Paarl Royals. Markram’s innings of 108 was pivotal, especially after DSG found themselves struggling at 53/3 early in the innings.
The South African batter combined effectively with Heinrich Klaasen to revive the innings, setting a formidable total that proved far too challenging for the opposition. The 58-run win, sealed by effective bowling from Sunil Narine and Simon Harmer, significantly boosted DSG's position in the tight playoff race.
Markram's ability to anchor and accelerate under pressure provides immense confidence for the Lucknow Super Giants management ahead of the IPL season. His current form suggests he is ready to replicate his match-winning capabilities when he returns to the Indian T20 league.

Aiden Markram was in fine form with the bat during the recently concluded SA20, and he has carried that into the international arena. He slammed an unbeaten 86 off 47 balls in the first T20I, hitting nine fours and three sixes.
If there’s any silver lining, it’s a bit of a blueprint now moving forward into that World Cup — how it looks when you open the batting to score big runs for myself.
