PRL vs PRE T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, SA20 2023
Match 18 of the SA20 sees Paarl Royals take on Pretoria Capitals on Sunday afternoon at Boland Park. The Royals have lost four of their six games in the tournament and are in fifth place. The Capitals have lost only one match alongside four victories and are top of the table. Read on as we preview this match. The game gets underway in Paarl at 13:30 local time.
A good start to the tournament has been replaced by a loss of form for the Royals and we expect them to find Pretoria Capitals a very tough opposition on Sunday.
Pretoria Capitals have dropped points against only Joburg Super Kings and won their last match by eight wickets on Friday.

PRL vs PRE Match Toss Prediction
In the four games at Boland Park so far in the tournament, the toss winning captain has chosen to field first on three occasions. We predict that both skippers will want to do the same in this match.
PRL vs PRE, Boland Park Pitch Report
Boland Park is certainly not the quickest wicket in the competition and spinners have been able to perform very well here. We expect a par score to be no higher than 155.
Paarl Weather Report
Clear skies and sunny throughout in Paarl with the temperature likely to be up at 29 degrees from start to finish of this game.

Paarl Royals Team News & Playing 11
PRL Team News
Wihan Lubbe, Corbin Bosch, Eoin Morgan and Codi Yusuf were all left out of the team for Saturday’s defeat as the Royals tried to kick-start their season with some changes to the XI. It did not work but we expect the new players to get another opportunity in this game.
PRL Key Players
- Jos Buttler- England’s white ball skipper has hit 197 runs so far in the SA20 with only Will Jacks scoring more runs so far. However, he has not had much support from other batters in the team.
- David Miller- the skipper has contributed scores of 26 and 28 in two of his last three innings and his team need him to deliver more runs, starting in this match.
- Bjorn Fortuin- the 28 year old slow left-arm orthodox bowler has picked up all 11 of his wickets at Boland Park and will be a very dangerous bowler again in this game.
PRL Team Form
The Royals have lost three of their last four matches with their only win on this run of games coming over Durban’s Super Giants in Match 10.

Pretoria Capitals Team News & Playing 11
PRE Team News
It was a fine performance from Pretoria Capitals on Friday with Jimmy Neesham the only member of the bowling attack to not pick up a wicket. There are no injuries in the squad and, particularly after the scale of the win in Match 15, we do not anticipate any changes.
PRE Key Players
- Will Jacks- the 24 year old England international had already hit scores of 92 and 56 in the tournament. Big things have been expected for a couple of years and he is now delivering consistently.
- Phil Salt- the keeper-batter is very strong behind the stumps but capable of winning a game by his batting alone. He has posted scores of 52 not out and 77 not out.
- Anrich Nortje- the right-arm pace bowler has a good argument to be considered as South Africa’s number one bowler across all formats. He dismissed Quinton de Kock and Keshav Maharaj in the last game.
PRE Team Form
Pretoria Capitals are in brilliant form with four wins from their five games in the tournament.
Pretoria Capitals Predicted Playing 11
Phil Salt (wk), Will Jacks, Theunis de Bruyn, Rilee Rossouw, Shane Dadswell, Jimmy Neesham, Wayne Parnell (c), Eathan Bosch, Adil Rashid, Anrich Nortje, Senuran Muthusamy

Who will win Paarl Royals vs Pretoria Capitals T20 Match?
Although Jos Buttler has made plenty of runs, his strike-rate is the worst of any batter in the top 10 run scorers. The Capitals have openers, Will Jacks and Phil Salt, with strike-rates of 196 and 167.
🏆 Paarl Royals vs Pretoria Capitals Prediction
With strong spinners in Bjorn Fortuin and Tabraiz Shamsi, it would be foolish to write off Paarl Royals at Boland Park on Sunday. However, Pretoria Capitals have been in excellent form and have been dominating sides with both bat and ball. We are predicting another victory for Pretoria Capitals.
