Sunrisers Eastern Cape are crowned champions during the Betway SA20 final match between Pretoria Capitals and Sunrisers Eastern Cape at Wanderers Stadium. Evergreen Roelof van der Merwe illustrated vividly that he's still a premium player in the T20 format with a fine showing in the SA20 final. Moreover, the 38-yearold is credited with instigating the turnaround in Sunrisers Eastern Cape's campaign after a poor start with skipper Aiden Markram stating he was a "leading character". Van der Merwe has no plans of scaling down his participation as his competitive fire still burns. Even at 38, the "Bulldog" still has a very serious bite.

Roelof van der Merwemere months after breaking Proteas hearts at the ICC T20 World Cup with the stunning catch that saw the Netherlands knock them out, is back endearing himself to the South African cricketing public with his infectious enthusiasm and skill, headlined by a Man of the Match performance in the historic SA20 final here on Sunday. The wily left-arm tweaker produced a superb spell of 4/31 as Sunrisers Eastern Cape flouted expectations with a fourwicket victory over Pretoria Capitals, the cherry on top to finishing joint leading wicket-taker (20) with Anrich Nortje. Yet, as much as Van der Merwe - who represented the Proteas before switching allegiance to the Netherlandsdelivered a defining contribution when the stakes were at their highest, it was the turnaround he instigated in the early part of his franchise's campaign that stands out.

After losing their opening two encounters, Sunrisers' fortunes changed once he was picked. Not that he'll take any credit for that.

For his skipper, Aiden Markram, his share in the team's triumph was stark. Van der Merwe's gamechanging abilities were on full show in front of a full house, striking with his first delivery to calm the nerves of a Sunrisers attack that seemingly tried too hard to exploit a good toss to win and a favourable surface.
