SA20 2025-26 Match 10: PR vs MICT head-to-head, pitch report & predicted playing XIs
Paarl Royals take on MI Cape Town in Match 10 of SA20 2025-26, with both teams looking to bounce back and gain crucial points at Boland Park.
Paarl Royals will face MI Cape Town in Match 10 of SA20 2025-26 at Boland Park, Paarl, on January 2. MI Cape Town has had the upper hand in this rivalry so far, winning five out of seven matches against the Royals.
The Paarl Royals had a disastrous start to the season as they lost by 137 runs in their opening game to the Sunrisers Eastern Cape. Their batting was extremely poor, with just two batsmen reaching double figures. However, the team rebounded quite well in the return game, with their captain, David Miller, scoring a fine half-century and leading his side to a much-needed victory. The Royals at home will look to carry that momentum.
MI Cape Town has not enjoyed a good start either. They lost a high-scoring game to the Durban Super Giants despite Ryan Rickelton’s century. Their second match was washed out due to rain, and in the third game, they were bowled out cheaply while chasing a big target against Pretoria Capitals. Captain Rashid Khan and his team will be eager to fix their mistakes and get their season back on track.
