PR vs JSK T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, SA20 2024
Paarl Royals go head to head with Joburg Super Kings in Match 9 of the 2024 SA20 on Wednesday evening at Boland Park. The Royals have played two and won two so far in the tournament whereas the Super Kings are still looking for their first win after being beaten by Durban’s Super Giants on Monday. Read on as we preview this match. The fixture begins in Paarl at 17:30 local time.
Paarl Royals have started the campaign with successive wins over Pretoria Capitals by 27 runs here at Boland Park and then by 10 runs at Centurion. The Royals have an impressive squad and individuals in strong form so it would not be a surprise to see them win again.
Joburg Super Kings lost on Saturday to MI Cape Town and then on Monday to Durban’s Super Giants and in both games they were nowhere near their opponents by the end. This looks like being another tough contest on Wednesday.

Paarl Royals have won both matches so far after being asked to bat first and they will have no problem if they are asked to do the same. However, we expect both skippers to want to field first in this match.

David Miller has handed over the same teamsheet ahead of both clashes against Paarl Royals so far in this SA20 and, unless there are some injuries which come to light ahead of this match on Wednesday evening, we anticipate seeing the same XI for this game.
PR Key Players
- David Miller - The 34 year old left-hander got on top of the Pretoria Capitals bowlers again in the last match where he finished unbeaten after hitting eight fours and three sixes.
- Jos Buttler - The keeper-batter and last year’s SA20 leading run scorer looked set to go on and make a big score on Sunday before he was dismissed for 39 runs from 23 balls.
- Lungi Ngidi - The 27 year old will come into this match full of confidence after dismissing Phil Salt and Theunis de Bruyn in the opening over before coming back to get Rilee Rossouw and Corbin Bosch in Match 6.
- Obed McCoy - The tall left-arm pace bowler has made a steady start to the campaign with a dismissal in both games against the Capitals. He has a striker-rate of 15.3 in T20 cricket.
PR Team Form
It is two wins from two even after losing the toss in both games for Paarl Royals. However, this will be the first time they play someone other than Pretoria Capitals.

🏆 Paarl Royals vs Joburg Super Kings Prediction
If the early season results are anything to go by, Paarl Royals will not have any problems in defeating Joburg Super Kings on Wednesday evening. However, an aggressive spell of bowling from Nandre Burger or some clean hitting from Moeen Ali could get Super Kings’ season going in a short period of time. We expect Joburg Super Kings to put in a stronger batting display than we saw on Monday but we think that Paarl Royals will be tough to compete with. Our prediction is for another win for Paarl Royals.
