Sunrisers Eastern Cape add Nandre Burger and Craig Overton to pace attack

Birrell said pace remains the franchise's X-factor and the new signings provide depth and insurance against injuries.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape coach Adrian Birrell confirmed the franchise signed left-arm quick Nandre Burger and England all-rounder Craig Overton at base price during the SA20 Season 5 auction. The pair join Marco Jansen, Anrich Nortje and Adam Milne in what Birrell described as one of the competition's most potent pace attacks. Burger is recovering from a lumbar stress reaction and missed Major League Cricket earlier this year.
