After trouncing the defending champions in their previous match, Paarl Rocks will look to continue their winning momentum when they lock horns with the second-placed Cape Town Blitz in match number 15 of Mzansi Super League 2019.
The Rocks had started their MSL 2019 campaign on a bright note as they had registered an 86-run victory against Cape Town Blitz. Though they could win only one of their next three matches, Faf du Plessis' men will look to repeat the same performance against Blitz.
On the other side, Quinton de Kock and co. will try to forget their previous match against Paarl and enter the field with a fresh mindset. They had lost their last fixture to the Nelson Mandela Bay Giants but, the Cape Town-based franchise will look to cement its second spot on the points table with a stellar performance against the Rocks.
Talking about the players to watch out for, the Paarl fans will expect James Vince to continue his magnificent form with the bat while the onus will be on Tabraiz Shamsi to take the wickets for the Rocks.

Predicted XIs
Cape Town Blitz
The Cape Town Blitz will look to keep the same match squad that played against the Giants the other day because all the players had played their part well and the team had lost the match in the final over.

Paarl Rocks
Paarl Rocks seemed to have found their right team combination in the game against Jozi Stars. The bowlers kept the Stars down to 129 in 20 overs while the batsmen ensured a successful run chase despite some hiccups. Hence, they should not tinker the winning squad.
Probable XI: Henry Davids, Cameron Delport, James Vince, Faf du Plessis (c), Dwaine Pretorious, Mangaliso Mosehle (wk), Isuru Udana, Hardus Viljoen, Bjorn Fortuin, Tabraiz Shamsi, Kerwin Mungroo
Match Prediction
The Rocks had defeated Cape Town Blitz in the first meeting between the sides. Also, they have the momentum by their side having won their last match. On the other side, Quinton de Kock's men suffered a close defeat against the Giants. Thus, Paarl Rocks will have the upper hand heading into this contest.
Paarl Rocks are expected to win this match.
