Delhi Capitals star Tristan Stubbs is focused on finding crucial form as he prepares to lead the Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the SA20 final against the Pretoria Capitals. While Stubbs experienced significant highs in 2024, his recent returns have been described as mediocre. The final at Newlands presents a vital opportunity for the young South African to deliver a match-winning performance.
Stubbs' motivation is twofold: securing a third title in four years for his team and building momentum following his recent call-up to the T20 World Cup squad as an injury replacement. A strong showing in the final would not only boost his confidence but also solidify his standing as a key middle-order asset for the Delhi Capitals ahead of the upcoming IPL season, where his explosive hitting is highly valued.
