Preview :

MI Cape Town are the table toppers with two wins and a loss in three matches. On the other hand, Paarl Royals have one win and a loss in two matches. They suffered a defeat against MI Cape Town in the last game by 33 runs and will be keen to bounce back in the reverse fixture.
Paarl Royals (PR) who made a staggering start with a facile 9 wickets win over two-time champions Sunrisers Eastern Cape, failed to recreate the same in the follow-up against MI Cape Town and ended up on the losing side. Chasing a tricky 172, the Royals lost hopes way too early and could only make 139 for 9. Late fireworks from low-order, Mujeeb ur Rahman (34) and Kwena Maphaka (22*) provided some sort of comfort at the end. Earlier in the game, Dayyaan Galiem shined with the ball with a 3-fer while the rest 4 bowlers used, got a wicket each.
On the other hand MI Cape Town, who finished last in the previous two seasons are on the verge of making a statement this year as they secured 2 wins from 3 matches so far. Their campaign began with a huge 97-run win over Sunrisers Eastern Cape, which was followed by a 6-run (DLS method) loss in the rain-marred game against Joburg Super Kings. They rose to the top of the standings with a commanding 33-run victory over Paarl Royals on Monday. Senior duo, Reeza Hendricks (59) and Rassie van der Dussen (43) set the stage on fire with crisp shot-making. With the ball, George Linde got the honors, picking up 3 wickets while front-line bowlers Rashid Khan and Kagiso Rabada bagged 2 wickets apiece.

Dewald Brevis :

Rassie van der Dussen had a successful season last time scoring 328 runs in ten matches. Also he has a decent record against the Paarl Royals, scored 131 runs at an average of 32.75 in five innings. Punt pick.
Ryan Rickelton :
Ryan Rickleton was the leading run getter in this previous edition with 530 runs in ten matches at a strike rate of 173 and an average of 58. Must have pick if plays.
George Linde :
George Linde is highly underrated as an all-rounder. His performances have been highlighted mainly in the crisis for MI Cape Town. Across 3 matches in the SA20 2025, he made 72 runs at a strike rate of 128.57 and picked up 4 wickets at a brilliant economy of 3.83. One of the best captaincy choice for grand league.
Delano Potgieter :
Delano Potgieter picked up a scintillating five-wicket haul in the opening match of SA20 2025 at an expense of just 10 runs in his three overs. As of January 15, the speedster was leading the race among the highest wicket-takers of the season. He has also proven himself to be an effective all-rounder for the MI Cape Town. Averaging 30.5 with the bat in T20s. Punt pick.
Dayyaan Galiem :
Dayyaan Galiem is the promising allrounder who's deceives the batters with his clever slower deliveries. He was the pick of the bowler for Paarl Royals against MI Cape Town, picking up 3 wickets at an economy of 6. Punt pick.
Rashid Khan :
Rashid Khan is a quality leg-spinner and has a stellar record in this format but unfortunately he's not able to get any wicket in first two games but bowled well in previous game took 2/28. He will also contribute with his batting which makes him a solid c/vc pick choice for grand league.
Trent Boult :
Trent Boult has made the new ball count on both instances for the MI Cape Town this SA20 2025 season. In the match against Sunrisers, the speedster picked up two quick wickets. He has so far collected 278 T20 wickets in just 238 matches. The 35-year-old holds an impressive average of just 12 in SA20 games, and concedes runs at just six-an-over in the South African T20 competition. Must have pick.
Kagiso Rabada :
Kagiso Rabada is the frontline Proteas pacer who was picked up nine wickets in ten matches last season and the pacer will be a good option to have against this opposition. Must have pick.
Kwena Maphaka :
Kwena Maphaka is the young bowling sensation who uses his bouncer and slower deliveries as a wicket-taking option. He scalped 2 wickets at an economy of 8.75 against Sunrisers Eastern Cape after that took 1/40 against the MICT. Must have pick.
Mujeeb ur Rahman :
Mujeeb ur Rahman has a mystery skill and is not an easy bowler to go after. In 2 matches in the SA20 2025, he picked up 3 wickets at an economy of 8.37. Good pick.
