Paarl Royals still top the log with 3 wins and a loss in their opening 4 games and their last match was away to Mi Cape Town on Friday.
Mi Cape Town won the toss and decided to bowl with the Paarl Royals scoring 172 for 8 in their 20 overs. Jos Buttler was once again top scorer with 46 off 31.
The Royals had Mi Cape Town in a bit of trouble early, but another superb 94 not out off 52 balls by Ryan Rickelton saw the home team reach the target with just 2 wickets down and over 3 overs in hand.
For me, Mi Cape Town, Thomas Kaber with 3 for 20 in 4 overs was the pick of the bowlers and Tabraiz Shamsi was pick of the Paarl Royals bowlers with 2 for 35 in his 4 overs. Ryan Rickelton was awarded Player of the Match.
In this fixture last season Mi Cape Town won by 13 runs having set Paarl Royals 143 to win and restricting them to 129 for 6 in their 20 overs. On that day Rassie van der Dussen was the pick of the Mi Cape Town’s batsmen with 49 off 42 and Jos Buttler once again the Paarl Royals top bat with 68 off 58 balls.

Paarl Royals 10/11
Mi Cape Town 17/20
Suggested Bet: Paarl Royals win at 10/11
The Royals were outplayed in Cape Town, but at home on this slower track they are always very tough to beat and another positive for them is that Jason Roy is finally starting to show some form at the top of the order.
Suggested Bet: Paarl Royals Top Bat, Jason Roy at 12/5
Roy has really battled in this tournament, both last season and this season, but he had a quick fire 38 of 14 balls on Friday night and I have a feeling that, that is going to kick-start his campaign.
