PC Vs PR Match Prediction: SA20 2025-26 will be the fourth season of this T20 franchise league competition in South Africa. Match 25 of the tournament will be between two teams pushing for a top-two finish.
The Pretoria Capitals are not among the more successful teams in SA20. In the inaugural 2023 season, they finished on top of the league table but lost in the final to the Sunrisers East Cape. Then, in the 2024 and 2025 seasons, they finished fifth, losing out on a playoff spot on both occasions.
Their start to this season was underwhelming. First, they lost to the Joburg Super Kings in their tournament opener, before being defeated by the Sunrisers Eastern Cape. Then, they thrashed the MI Cape Town to register their first win of the season. The game against the Durban Super Giants was washed off before being thrashed by the Sunrisers Eastern Cape.
Pretoria defeated the Durban Super Giants next. Most recently, they defeated the Paarl Royals and MI Cape Town. With four wins, three losses, one no-result, 20 points, and a positive net run rate in eight games, the Capitals are second on the points table.
The Paarl Royals are one of only two teams in this league to have never played a final. Their best performance came in 2025, as they played in Qualifier 2 that season.
Their start to this season was disappointing, losing to Sunrisers Eastern Cape in their opening match by a whopping 137 runs. However, since then, they have won three games in a row, one against the Sunrisers and twice against the Paarl Royals. Then camemost recent games, which were a washout against the Joburg Super Kings and a defeat to the Pretoria Capitals.
Most recently, they defeated the Durban Super Giants. With four wins, two losses, one no result, 19 points, and a negative net run rate in seven matches, the Royals are third on the points table.

PC Vs PR Match SuperSport Park Cricket Stadium Pitch Report
While the pitches in Centurion have historically been pace-friendly, in recent times, it has been a site for high scores, especially in T20 cricket, where the pitch does not have a chance to break down. Speaking of breaking down, in the Second inning, the pitch starts providing a little help to the spinners. There is also help for pacers with a lot of variation here. This makes winning the toss and batting first the obvious choice here on most occasions. The square boundaries here are short, about 60m in length. On the other hand, the straight boundaries are over 74m away from the batter.

It will be a challenging evening in Paarl, with temperatures hovering around the 20 degrees Celsius mark. The skies will be partly cloudy with a small chance of rain, but thunderstorms are expected to roll in at the time of the match. The winds will be strong, while the humidity will be high.
