Paarl Royals Betting Analysis

Paarl Royals’ Sam Hain scored 20 in his first knock of the season for the Royals and he’ll be aiming to improve on that figure in this rematch. Hain is likely to bat at number three yet again and bettors should invest in him ending up as Paarl’s top scorer in this encounter through the ‘Team - Top Batter’ market.

MI Cape Town Betting Analysis

MI Cape Town accumulated a winning score batting first against Paarl Royals last time out, piling up 172 runs. Top-order batter Reeza Hendricks recorded 59 from 37 deliveries, including eight 4s and one maximum. It may be worth a small stake on Hendricks continuing his run-scoring antics against this particular opponent, specifically backing the South African to accrue 30+ runs.

Paarl Royals vs MI Cape Town Expert Prediction

MI Cape Town were comfortable winners when these two teams last met, but momentum can swing very quickly in T20 cricket. With Paarl Royals at home this time around, they are in a position to make a much closer fist of things here against a team whose first victory of the league stage was followed up by defeat straight after. It would be no surprise to see the same outcome unfold in this one, with MI Cape Town again going down immediately after getting a win.
