The final SA T20 League match tales place at Centurion Park on Tuesday and we take a look at the game from a betting angle.
The Capitals are going to finish top of the log and that means a semi-final at the Wanderers against the 4th placed team. Who that 4th placed team is we are not too sure yet and if Paarl Royals win this game they will play the Joburg Super Kings at Centurion Park and if the Pretoria Capitals win then these sides will meet again at the Wanderers.
Looking at the latest Outright Betting we have the Joburg Super Kings and Pretoria Capitals trading as 5/2 favourites with the Sunrisers Eastern Cape 28/10, the Paarl Royals are 7/2 and the Durban Super Giants who still have a mathematical chance are 14/1. For the Durban Super Giants to progress they would need the Paarl Royals to take a real hammering against the Pretoria Capitals.

PRETORIA CAPITALS
The Pretoria Capitals last game was surely their worst of the campaign. They won the toss and elected to field first against the Durban Super Giants and then conceded a massive 254 for 4 in their 20 overs. None of their bowlers stood out with Pretorius getting 2 for 62 off his 4 overs and the only bowler to go under 10 an over was Josh Little with 1 for 39 in his 4.
The run chase began badly and at the end of the day it was Number 9, Eathan Bosch who top scored with 23 off 13 balls as the Pretoria Capitals were bundled out for 103.
PAARL ROYALS
It has been some time since the Paarl Royals had a completed match and their last action was on Friday away at the Joburg Super Kings where they were sent into bat by the home team. They reached 131 for 4 in 15 overs with Jason Roy top scoring with 41 off 42 balls. Unfortunately rain came down and no further play was possible.
The Capitals and Royals met in Match 18 in Paarl and the Royals won by 6 wickets chasing down 159 with 2 balls remaining.

Pretoria Capitals 9/10
Paarl Royals 19/20
Suggested Bet: Paarl Royals win at 19/20
I really feel as if the balance of this Capital side is not where it was following the departure of star opening batsman, Jacks. They appear to be a side that peaked too early and I think the Paarl Royals are going to thrive on this Centurion track with the likes of Buttler, Roy and Miller capable of making merry.
Suggested Bet: Most 6’s Paarl Royals at 19/20
This is a bet I really like given the number of players in the Paarl Royals side capable of clearing the boundary. It is not to say the Capitals are not left with 6 hitters themselves, but I feel that the Royals should be firmer favourites in this market.
Suggested Bet: Pretoria Capitals Top Batsman, Phil Salt at 27/10
I don’t want to have all my eggs in one basket so I am going to have a bet on the Pretoria Capitals innings and suggest that Phil Salt can bounce back to form at what looks a tasty price.
