SA20 Cricket Match Prediction 2024 | Match 3 | Paarl Royals vs Pretoria Capitals – Let’s see who will win. | Jan 12
Paarl Royals vs Pretoria Capitals Match Analysis
Paarl Royals vs Pretoria Capitals will clash on each other in the third match of the 2024 SA20 tournament takes place at Boland Park on Friday night. Last year, the Capitals won the group stage and lost the final, while the Royals placed fourth in the group stage and were eliminated in the semifinals. In Paarl, this daytime match begins at 17:30 local time.
The Paarl Royals are eager to start winning this year because they were dissatisfied with their 2023 campaign as a whole. They are strong and deep at every position, and many analysts believe they will win on Friday night. The Pretoria Capitals have put together a formidable team once more, and when Will Jacks and Phil Salt share the crease in this game, there will be no shortage of excitement. This could be a difficult season-opening because their pace bowling assault appears to be weaker than it was the previous year.
Paarl Royals vs Pretoria Capitals Team Preview & Squads
Paarl Royals
Jos Buttler and Jason Roy, the opening duo, have a great deal of experience together at bat, thus the Paarl Royals may benefit greatly from their knowledge at the top of the order. Although Buttler failed to score more than 70 in the 2023 SA20, he did record four half-centuries, and he will be motivated to record the most runs in the competition once more. In addition to Buttler and Roy, captain David Miller is a potent hitter who scored 227 runs in the previous campaign.
The Paarl Royals have some excellent all-round bowlers, but we believe that Fabian Allen and Tabraiz Shamsi will be the team’s key spin bowlers, while Lungi Ngidi and Obed McCoy will spearhead the pace attack. On this Paarl pitch, though, the spinners might be the difference.
Paarl Royals Squads
David Miller (c), Jos Buttler (wk), Wihan Lubbe, Andile Phehlukwayo, Bjorn Fortuin, Fabian Allen, Tabraiz Shamsi, Dane Vilas, Lungi Ngidi, Jason Roy, Obed McCoy
Pretoria Capitals
The Pretoria-based team, the Capitals, advanced to the championship game in the previous season and will be aiming for even greater success this time around. That might be easier said than done, though, since they won’t have South Africa’s right-arm fast international Anrich Nortje, whose injury has kept him out of the campaign.
The presence of England’s keeper-batter Phil Salt at the top of the Pretoria Capitals hierarchy is sure to delight the supporters of both clubs in Paarl. Despite not being sold at the December IPL auction, he bounced back from the setback by scoring two consecutive hundreds in Twenty20 international matches against the West Indies. In this year’s game, Salt’s confidence is expected to have significantly changed, and observers and opposing bowlers may witness a strike-rate contest between him and Will Jacks during first wicket partnerships!
Pretoria Capitals Squads
