PC vs PR 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 12th 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.
