Pitch Report

The temperature is 27 degrees, it's beautiful. Little bit of a breeze that's coming from the mountain. One very short boundary, for a right-handed batsman facing the Kelvin Grove end, hitting towards the leg side square is 59 meters. 69 meters the other side. With the wind towards the leg side, the boundary might turn out to be even shorter. 170 seems an interesting number on this deck, has been chased down four times. It's a fresh surface, got a nice shine to it. Looks like a belter. The overhead conditions is a concern, the heat saps up the moisture. 170 might not be enough if the ball doesn't turn much. It's got some grass covering, bit of grass in the middle too. The cracks won't play a big role though. Looks better from the Kelvin Grove end. 169 might be a par score, reports Shaun Pollock and Mike Haysman.

Commentary

That brings us to the end of another SA20 contest. We will be back tomorrow with another clash. For now this is the troika of Arya Sekhar Chakraborty, Rajarshi Das and Bala biding adieu. Goodnight fellas!

Rashid Khan (MI Cape Town captain): Yeah I think it was a good win for us. We are the back end of the tournament and it was amazing to see the brilliant all round performance. Yeah I think it was much needed for me, taking some wickets. More important was how we bowled in the first six overs. We took advantage of the new ball and restricted them in the first ten overs. Even till the end, we kept up the good work. Well the way they batted and took the score to 150 from 22/4 but as a team we had in mind that we could chase down 160-170. This wicket and ground is very good. As a team we had the mentality of chasing around the score. We chased against Joburg as well. The wicket is behaving nice. Doesn't matter whatever the target it is. I think in T20s it is important how you get the start. The openers gave us a great start and the powerplay played a main role.

Keshav Maharaj (Durban Supergiants captain): Obviously very disappointed. Kudos to Klaasi who got us to a good score. Yeah I think, it's probably the way the season has gone. To put in the process, it's very disappointing. Salvage zone pride in the last two games and carry the momentum next year. The fielding looked tighter today.

Heinrich Klaasen has been adjudged Player Of The Match! Here's what he has to say: It's been a long, frustrating campaign. It came along a bit too late, but satisfied with my outing. I've been there before, so I know what to do. It's really frustrating, but it's part of the game. Bitter pill to swallow. I was quite relaxed (when I came out). I've been hitting the ball nicely, my processes have been the same. Part of the game - I've been finding ways to get out, it's been terrible and unpleasant, had confidence that I was hitting the ball nicely. Just needed to give myself a bit longer out there. Knew I had to pull the trigger at some point. We just said we're going to take it on like a One Day game, make sure we bat till the 14th over and go for it. Wait for the bad balls and make use of it. Spent some time out there nicely. (On Williamson's good traits) His calmness. How he's not fussed about getting runs, he plays the situation and gets those runs. Something to look up to. You don't always have to go at a strike rate of 200, sometimes the dirty work has to be done, he's a master of that.

MI Cape Town won by 7 wickets (with 31 deliveries to spare)

Ryan Rickelton 63(41) | Rashid Khan 2/34(4)
Heinrich Klaasen 66(43) | Keshav Maharaj 1/23(4)

It turned out to be a rather straightforward run chase for MI Cape Town as they chased down the target of 150 with 7 wickets in hand and with 31 deliveries to spare. The score of 149 was never going to challenge MI Cape Town had the Durban Supergiants not taken some early wickets. The openers Ryan Rickelton and Rassie van der Dussen provided exactly the start MI Cape Town was after.

Rickelton in particular took the bowling attack apart and smashed boundaries for fun. Van der Dussen also gave him good support and ended up scoring a 18 ball 24 and shared a match winning stand of 75 in 8.1 overs. He ended up chopping a Keshav Maharaj delivery straight onto the stumps. Rickelton went on to complete a well deserved fifty and smacked 5 sixes during his belligerent knock of 63 which came in 41 deliveries.

He was dismissed by Junior Dala but by then all the damage was done. Dewald Brevis stated well and struck some fine shots while Sediqullah Atal, the debutant, couldn't quite make a significant impact. George Linde was sent up the order to provide the momentum to acquire the bonus point and he didn't disappoint.

The southpaw smoked four sixes in the final over of Stoinis and remained unbeaten on 29 off just 8 deliveries. Brevis also remained undefeated, scoring 26 off 16 delinddies. Keshav Maharaj was the pick of the DSG bowlers, finishing with 1/23. Don't go anywhere, we will be back with the post match presentation ceremony shortly.

This is a powerhouse finish from George Linde. Four sixes off five deliveries and they solidify their position in the points table. Durban Supergiants can't buy a win at the moment and continues to slide down further in the points table. It was a good toss to win for MI and in the end, it was a riveting chase which saw them get over the line.

14.5 Marcus Stoinis to George Linde, OVER POINT, and that will be that! Durban's Super Giants' prospects of a berth in the playoffs go up in smoke! Stoinis tries going wide of the batter as Linde gives himself room once again. Linde reaches out for it, gets to it, and slashes this one onto the advertisement hoardings at point. MI Cape Town claim a bonus point to go with a big win!

14.4 Marcus Stoinis to George Linde, slow, short delivery outside leg stump. Linde gave himself room, looked to swish at it, was too early to make contact

14.3 Marcus Stoinis to George Linde, THREE IN A ROW! Just two more needed! Short of a length from Stoinis this time, he lands this just outside leg stump. Linde backs away, picks the length early and swats it across the line. Just about clears the cow corner boundary

14.2 Marcus Stoinis to George Linde, AND AGAIN! Full, right in the slot around leg stump this time. Linde gets right under it, lofts it through the line, and the ball sails into the banks at long on this time!

14.1 Marcus Stoinis to George Linde, WHAT. A. HIT! Stoinis goes full, ends up landing this in the slot on off stump, Linde clears his front leg and merely lofts it over extra cover. Timing's good enough for the ball to fly into the banks!

Marcus Stoinis [2-0-17-0] is back into the attack.

Brevis ends the over with a maximum. Noor got a wicket in that over but it is unlikely to make an impact in the context of this particular game. This has been a thoroughly professional run from MI and they haven't broken a sweat so far in achieving the feat.

13.6 Noor Ahmad to Dewald Brevis, SALT TO THE WOUND! Generously tossed up outside the line of off. Brevis makes room for himself and clobbers this high and wide over long off

13.5 Noor Ahmad to George Linde, Heinrich Klaasen drops an absolute dolly! Noor gets this one to leap off a length, Linde looked to pull, gets a thick top edge and the ball flies up. Klaasen settles under it, 9 out of ten times he would have taken it, not this time. Goes to ground off his palms!

13.4 Noor Ahmad to George Linde, wrong 'un again, tossed up outside off. Linde meets thin air with the slog as the ball turns in

13.3 Noor Ahmad to George Linde, wrong 'un... IS DISPATCHED! Turns in from a length outside off, Linde looks to cut, chops it past the right of short third with the outside edge. The ball travels to the ropes

George Linde, LHB comes out to the crease.

The Afghan wrist spinner has the last laugh. MI Cape Town looking to acquire the bonus point which might be the reason behind going hard.
