SA20: Paarl Royals vs Sunrisers Eastern Cape: All you need to know
The third match of the ongoing SA20 will see the Paarl Royals lock horns with the Sunrisers Eastern Cape at Boland Park on Saturday. Both teams head into the new season on the back of contrasting fortunes, making this encounter quite important to set a strong foundation early on in the tournament. The Paarl Royals enter the match with plenty of confidence drawn from their impressive run in the previous edition.
Finishing second on the points table last season, the Royals looked like strong contenders for the title before their journey was cut short in Qualifier 2. Meanwhile, their dominance at home was quite noticeable.
Under the leadership of David Miller, the Royals will be keen to maintain that consistency. On the other side, the Sunrisers Eastern Cape arrive with a very different story. With three consecutive final appearances and their inability to clinch the title, SRH will be eager to go all the way.
