Paarl Royals enter this contest with a star-studded and well-balanced squad. Their batting lineup features David Miller, Joe Root, Dinesh Karthik, Sam Hain, and Rubin Hermann, capable of both stability and aggressive hitting.

Boland Park generally favors batsmen, but early seam movement and slow turn in the middle overs can assist bowlers. A first-innings total in the range of 160–175 should be competitive under evening lights.
