Paarl Rocks played in the first two editions of the MLS in 2018 and 2019, before COVID-19 delayed the competition in 2020. The side won the competition in 2019[2] but were dissolved in 2021 in response to the reform of the domestic structure of South African cricket. All six of the original city-based franchise teams in the Mzansi Super League were to have been replaced by eight new teams based around the new South African domestic structure,[3] but the league itself was later cancelled and replaced by a new franchise competition, the SA20, beginning in the 2022/23 season.[citation needed]
