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. All-rounders including Andile Phehlukwayo, Kwena Maphaka, Mitchell Van Buuren, and Nqaba Peter provide depth across batting and bowling.

The all-rounders Rashid Khan, Kagiso Rabada, and Thomas Kaber provide balance. The bowling attack, featuring Trent Boult, Nuwan Thushara, George Linde, and Connor Esterhuizen, gives MI Cape Town a variety of wicket-taking options.
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.
