Strengths

The sure shot strength that Paarl Rocks own is their strong batting lineup. With the likes of Aiden Markram, Faf du Plessis, and Dwayne Bravo, Rocks appear to possess an experienced batting lineup which will produce good results for them in MSL 2018.

Thus, with a stronger batting suit and an experienced skipper, Paarl Rocks are expected to dominate the upcoming MSL 2018.

Weaknesses

With a relatively stronger squad up their sleeve, Paarl Rocks are good to go in MSL 2018. However, they do have a handful of weaknesses that they need to encounter in MSL 2018.

The first weakness that Paarl Rocks need to battle with is their comparatively weaker fast bowling lineup. They are short of experience in their pace department which might bring nightmares for them in MSL 2018. Hence, with minimal experience, Paar Rocks will be relying heavily on Dwayne Bravo in their bowling which might put a lot of pressure on him.

The second thing that might trouble Paarl Rocks is the lack of options in their spin department. The only spinner in their suit is Tabraiz Shamsi. Hence, Paarl Rocks are short on backup options in their spin web. Thus, in case of injury to Shamsi, Paarl might face problems. Although the chances are less, we need to take it into account.

Thus, with a tad inexperienced bowling lineup, Paarl Rocks happens to be imbalanced on the bowling front.
