The Paarl Royals (PRL) and Joburg Super Kings (JOH) will meet on Friday at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg for the 24th match of the SA20 2023 tournament. The Royals have a higher net run-rate despite having the same number of victories as the other team. It will undoubtedly be a difficult battle for either team to improve their chances of reaching the semifinals.
In their most recent league match, the Kings allowed 178 runs with the bat, but they made up for it with the bat to win with five balls remaining. They heavily rely on players like Faf du Plessis and Gerald Coetzee. In contrast, Royals captured the chase for 131 in their most recent match, resulting in a decisive victory. They will rely heavily on the contributions of Jos Buttler and Bjorn Fortuin.
