Rondebosch head out to Paarl
Paarl Boys' High suffered their first defeat in South Africa last week when they lost to Grey Bloem, a match they could have won. Now they play hosts to Rondebosch at the end of a week of heavy rain.
Boys' High have been having a great season, Rondebosch a disappointing one. Boys' High are ranked 9th on the FNB Top 20 while Rondebosch have lost seven of their ten matches, including a 59-21 defeat at the hands of Wynberg. Paarl Boys' High have played 11 matches, losing only to Grey Bloem though they drew with Noord-Kaap But then they have played only two other teams on the Top 20 – Outeniqua and Wynberg.
It looks like a match Boys' High would be expected to win especially because of Rondebosch's second-half fade.
