JSK vs PR Match Analysis | Lotus365 Insights

With only five games left in the SA20 2025 group stage, two playoff spots remain open. Paarl Royals and MI Cape Town have already secured their places, while Durban’s Super Giants have been eliminated. The battle for the remaining spots involves Sunrisers Eastern Cape, Joburg Super Kings, and Pretoria Capitals.

A win here could be crucial for JSK, but they will have to overcome the table-topping Paarl Royals, who have been in fantastic form.

Teams Preview | Lotus365 Cricket Analysis

Joburg Super Kings Preview

JSK suffered a crushing six-wicket defeat against Pretoria Capitals, managing only 99/9 in their innings. Captain Faf du Plessis (14), Jonny Bairstow (30), and Donovan Ferreira (14) were the only batters to reach double figures. The team may consider promoting Bairstow to open, replacing the out-of-form Devon Conway.

Bowling-wise, Lutho Sipamla has been impressive, securing back-to-back three-wicket hauls, while Hardus Viljoen’s pace could be a key factor.

Joburg Super Kings Predicted Playing XI:

Faf du Plessis (c), Devon Conway, Wihan Lubbe, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Moeen Ali, Evan Jones, Donovan Ferreira, Hardus Viljoen, Imran Tahir, Lutho Sipamla, Matheesha Pathirana

Paarl Royals Preview

Paarl Royals have been consistently strong, pulling off victories even in challenging situations. Their last match saw them secure a win off the penultimate ball, successfully chasing 144 against Durban’s Super Giants.

Joe Root and Lhuan-dre Pretorius have been reliable at the top, while the bowling duo of Bjorn Fortuin and Kwena Maphaka continues to be a threat. If the pitch favors spinners, expect captain David Miller to utilize them aggressively.

Paarl Royals Predicted Playing XI:

Joe Root, Lhuan-dre Pretorius, Rubin Hermann, Mitchell Van Buuren, Dinesh Karthik (wk), Dayyaan Galiem, David Miller (c), Dunith Wellalage, Bjorn Fortuin, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Kwena Maphaka
