PR vs JSK Match Preview

Paarl Royals will face the Johannesburg Super Kings in Match 9 of the 2024 SA20 on Wednesday evening at Boland Park. The Royals have played two games and won two so far in the tournament, while the Super Kings are still looking for their first win after being defeated by Durban’s Super Giants on Monday. Paarl Royals have started the season with two consecutive wins over Pretoria Capitals, first by 27 runs at Boland Park and then by 10 runs at Centurion. Joburg Super Kings lost on Saturday to MI Cape Town and then on Monday to Durban’s Super Giants, and in both games, they were far behind their opponents by the end. This appears to be another tough contest on Wednesday.

Topmost Picks for PR vs JSK Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Paarl Royals

• Jos Buttler- the England white ball skipper had a very disappointing 2023 Cricket World Cup but found form again during the T20I series with West Indies during December.
• Obed McCoy- the tall and powerful left-arm pace bowler can often be expensive as he targets wickets over anything else. His T20 strike-rate is 15.2.

Top Picks – Joburg Super Kings

• Reeza Hendricks – With his opening partner struggling for runs, the South Africa international top scored for the Super Kings with 38 runs from 32 balls on Monday.
• Nandre Burger – The left-arm pace bowler got the wicket of an opener in the last game and has had a bright start to the tournament with three wickets from two matches.

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for PR vs JSK Dream11 Team:

Jos Buttler, Jason Roy, Faf du Plessis, David Miller, Reeza Hendricks, Moeen Ali, Romario Shepherd(VC), Wihan Lubbe, Andile Phehlukwayo(C), Lizaad Williams, Lungi Ngidi

Suggested Playing XI N0.2 for PR vs JSK Dream11 Team:

Jos Buttler(VC), Mitchell van Buuren, Faf du Plessis(C), David Miller, Reeza Hendricks, Moeen Ali, Romario Shepherd, Tabraiz Shamsi, Andile Phehlukwayo, Nandre Burger, Lungi Ngidi

Captain and Vice-Captain Options:

Captain – Andile Phehlukwayo, Faf du Plessis

Vice-captain – Romario Shepherd, Jos Buttler

Wicketkeeper – Jos Buttler

PR vs JSK Probable Winners:

If early season results are any indication, the Paarl Royals will easily defeat the Johannesburg Super Kings on Wednesday evening. However, an aggressive spell of bowling from Nandre Burger, or some clean hitting from Moeen Ali, could jumpstart the Super Kings’ season quickly. We expect the Johannesburg Super Kings to put on a better batting display than we saw on Monday, but we believe the Paarl Royals will be difficult to compete with. We predict that Paarl Royals will win again. Considering the team combination, Paarl Royals is expected to win this match.
