Titans all-rounder Dayyaan Galiem has been named the Division 1 T20 SACA MVP for the 2024/25 season. The 27-year-old’s consistent performances across all facets of the game earned him 141.697 points in ten matches.

The SACA MVP uses an internationally recognized rankings system to measure the key influencers in CSA’s domestic competitions. The domestic SACA MVP algorithm, developed by SACA and administered by cricket statistician Andrew Samson, identifies the most valuable performers in domestic cricket.

Galiem’s impact was felt throughout the tournament. His ability to contribute with both bat and ball, combined with his fielding prowess, made him a valuable asset to the Titans. The all-rounder’s consistent run-scoring and wicket-taking abilities, coupled with his sharp fielding, propelled him to the top of the T20 MVP standings, finishing 30 points ahead of second-place Western Province, George Linde (111.430) and North West captain Wihan Lubbe (103.266).

The Titans all-rounder finished the competition with a strike rate of 126.11, 12 wickets, and five catches.

“It’s an incredible feeling to be named the SACA MVP. I’m grateful for the opportunity to represent the Titans and contribute to the team’s success. A lot of work has been put into developing my game, and so far, it’s turned out well, which I’m grateful and happy about. I’m excited to continue building on these achievements, but nothing would be possible if it weren’t for the right people guiding me and supporting me,” said Galiem.
