Sourav Ganguly may face pressure in his first SA20 coaching stint, but legendary Allan Donald believes his "fantastic cricket brain" will help him navigate the tough moments.

Dewald Brevis has become the costliest player in SA20 history after Pretoria Capitals, guided by Sourav Ganguly, acquired him for a record R16.5 million. The intense bidding war saw off competition from Joburg Super Kings. Ganguly emphasized Brevis's exceptional talent, particularly his ability to play spin, justifying the high price.

Sourav Ganguly, the former Indian captain, has been appointed as the head coach of the Pretoria Capitals, an SA20 franchise, for the 2026 season. This marks Ganguly's inaugural coaching role with a cricket team. The Centurion-based team confirmed the appointment following Jonathan Trott's departure, hoping Ganguly's leadership will bring a turnaround in their performance.
