PR vs PC Match Preview

Two of the first ten games in the 2025 SA20 have ended in a draw, with Pretoria Capitals unlucky enough to be involved in both! This will be the tournament's 21th match, and with the possible exception of Sunrisers Eastern Cape, all 2024 SA20 champions, every one of the other teams have prevailed at least once. Pretoria Capitals have only won one match and are one point behind the leaders in the table as of Friday. They are additionally one point ahead of Paarl Royals, who have two wins so far, and the league predicts a particularly close game at SuperSport Park in Centurion.

PR vs PC Key Players

Theunis de Bruyn

Theunis de Bruyn has been in and around the national squad in recent times. He is a handy batter in the middle-order and with batting slots opening up in the South African side he has places to target.

Jos Buttler

2023 wasn’t the greatest for one of the best white-ball cricketers going around. Jos Buttler did not have the best of IPL, by his own towering standards, and the World Cup disaster followed. Coming into the new year and with new challenges ahead Buttler will be waiting to set things right.
