Boland vs Warriors Team Preview & Squads
Boland
Clyde Fortuin has been a tactical and emotionally intelligent captain, maintaining calm even in crunch phases. His wicketkeeping gives him a unique perspective on angles and match tempo, helping him make timely bowling changes.
BOL batting relies on partnerships rather than solo heroics. Gavin Kaplan and Grant Roelofsen provide early structure, while Aviwe Mgijima and Ferisco Adams handle mid-overs acceleration. If they avoid early collapses, they have the depth to push totals above par.
BOL’s bowling is their greatest strength, embedded with discipline and control. Imran Manack and Glenton Stuurman consistently pick wickets inside the powerplay and middle overs. Ferisco Adams offers crucial overs at the death, making them extremely difficult to chase against.
Boland’s last match against KZN-Inland was a near-perfect execution of their game plan. They posted 168/6, protecting wickets early before accelerating late. Their bowlers then strangled KwaZulu-Natal Inland, dismissing them for 121 while maintaining pressure throughout. The 47-run victory boosts Boland’s confidence heading into this qualifier.

Warriors
Matthew De Villiers has shaped the Warriors into a fearless batting-first team, built around aggression and tempo. His leadership encourages individuality while maintaining a strong team-first approach. His on-field decision-making reflects confidence in matchups and intuitive tactical reads.
WAR boast one of the most destructive batting units in the tournament. Thomas Kaber and Patrick Kruger complement the explosiveness of Breetzke and JP King, keeping strike rates high. Their depth allows them to attack from ball one without fear of collapse.
Warriors’ bowlers thrive on attacking lines rather than containment. Kerwin Mungroo and Wesley Bedja add firepower in pace, while Christopher King provides variations during transition overs. Their bowling thrives best when defending big totals.
WAR completely demolished Boland in their last meeting on November 19, 2025. They smashed 209/5, showcasing their ultra-aggressive batting blueprint. Boland was bundled out for 111, overwhelmed by the Warriors’ intensity. The 98-run victory is a psychological advantage coming into this qualifier.

BOL vs WAR Outfield Report
Paarl Cricket Club Ground, Paarl
The Paarl surface traditionally starts with a moderate grip for bowlers before settling into a flat, hard batting track as the innings progress. Early caution is necessary, but once set, batters can score heavily through straight boundaries.
Weather conditions should be clear with negligible humidity and an average temperature around 23–25°C, perfect for evening T20 cricket. Dew could play a role, making bowling slightly tricky.
Historically, at Paarl, scores of 155–170 are competitive when batting first, but 185+ becomes winning territory if the set batters fire. Chasing gets easier under lights, yet quick wickets can still trigger dramatic collapses.
