Paarl Royals to face Sunrisers Eastern Cape in match 3 of SA20 2025 [Source: @AyandaFelemZA/X.com]
Paarl Royals are scheduled to clash with Sunrisers Eastern Cape in the third fixture of the SA20 2025 season. The clash will take place on January 11 at the Boland Park stadium in Paarl from 4.30 PM IST.
The Paarl Royals finished third last season but stumbled toward the end, losing four consecutive league games. They want to get off to a good start under the leadership of David Miller with a very strong side featuring Joe Root, Lungi Ngidi, and Jacob Bethell.
Meanwhile, two-time SA20 champions Sunrisers were dismantled in their opening game as their middle order crumbled under pressure. Aiden Markram will look to rally his troops, but they may need lineup adjustments, including the inclusion of David Bedingham.
While the form of Sunrisers is a matter of concern, their overdependence on a few players may prove expensive. In contrast, the Royals have a balanced team with some power hitters and quality bowlers.
The upcoming match between the Royals and Eastern Cape is scheduled at Boland Park. Here's a quick look at the weather report for match day.
