The Eliminator of SA20 2025-26 will be played between Paarl Royals and Joburg Super Kings at the SuperSport Park in Centurion on January 22. The winner of the contest will take on the loser of Qualifier 1 between Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Pretoria Capitals.

The Royals won five matches out of 10. One of their matches, against the Super Kings, was affected due to rain. The David Miller-led unit could have secured a top two spot had they not lost their last two league phase matches.

The Super Kings won their first three matches of the season. Their next win of the season was against the Royals in their final league phase match.

The Super Kings were unlucky to miss out on two matches affected due to bad weather.

PR vs JSK Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter: David Miller

Barring an unbeaten 71-run knock, Miller has not had the best of SA20 this season. The left-handed batter, who is leading the Royals, has grown an extensive reputation as a player who delivers on big occasions. The Eliminator may just be the occasion for Miller to shine.

Probable Best Bowler: Nandre Burger

Burger has not gone wicketless in the Super Kings' past three outings. The left-arm pacer can be expected to be a menace, in particular with the new ball. H
