DSG vs PR Match Preview

On Friday evening at Boland Park, Paarl Royals will face Durban Super Giants in Match 19 of the 2024 SA20 tournament. This is a top-of-the-table clash, with Paarl Royals leading the way with five wins and only one loss this season. Paarl Royals were without their captain on Wednesday, but it made no difference as they still won by 5 wickets with one over remaining. They have good batting depth in their squad, and we expect them to win again on Friday. Durban’s Super Giants had a great start to the season before losing to Pretoria Capitals and Sunrisers Eastern Cape. They have, however, returned to winning ways and will travel to Paarl hoping to reclaim first place in the table.

Top Picks – Paarl Royals

• Jos Buttler – the stand-in captain added another 22 runs to his tally for this season in the win over Joburg Super Kings and he is enjoying his cricket in this tournament.

DSG vs PR Probable Winners:

This game appears to be a close contest, but we anticipate a high number of runs scored. The Super Giants do not appear to be as strong as they were earlier in the season, but they are back on track to win and will cause problems for the Royals. However, the Paarl Royals have been winning with or without their captain, and we expect them to do so again in this match. Considering the team combination, Paarl Royals is expected to win this match.
