That's it for tonight. We have a double-header coming up tomorrow as well. Keep following Sportskeeda as we bring you all the action. Till then sleep tight and sweet dreams. Take care.
Quinton de Kock | Durban Super Giants captain: It was a great win, we needed that. I have played here quite a bit and I kind of understood the situation we were dealt with. We lost a couple of wickets and then concentrated on the win [on going for the bonus point]. Klaasen has been around a long time and in the end, we had to settle for just the win.
Kyle Mayers | Player of the Match: It's a good feeling, getting the team across the line. It's something I practise. I always want to execute the inswinging yorker upfront, my team always back me to get the wicket in the first over. I have a bit of skills, try to show every now and then. Haven't faced him (Jofra Archer) for a while. The last time I batted him was when he was in school. I really enjoyed the first game in Durban and it is really good for South African cricket.
Rashid Khan | MI Cape Town skipper: Yeah, I agree chasing has an advantage but we did well towards the end of the innings to get past 150. We were still 15-20 short. The guys were getting wickets at quick successions but we were also leaking runs at the same time, something we cannot afford to do from the next game. Chasing is easier but if we bat first and put 170+, then the ball is on our court. It's great to have a talent like Olly Stone in our side, he was terrific today. Still pretty early in the competiton and plenty of games to go.
Durban have finished it off in style. A tremendous chase headlined by Mayers and de Kock's opening stand before Mulder and Klaasen shared a good stand and then Paul came out and finished it off in glory.
Mayers and de Kock started the chase meeting fire with fire and the West Indian was brutal against the extreme pace of Archer, Stone and the spin of Rashid Khan.
But both openers departed in quick succession and Mulder and Klaasen rebuilt nicely. Stone induced some excitement with two wickets in one over as Durban went for the bonus point - a win in 16 overs.
Just when the pressure was ramping up, Paul struck 3 sixes sweetly to bring the game to a close.
Stay tuned for the post-match presentation...

16.3 Olly Stone to Keemo Paul, SIX MORE! GAME! SET! MATCH! DSK win by 5 wickets and pretty comperehensively towards the end. Banged in short and outside off again, Paul pulls this over deep midwicket with an open stance to fire DSK home!

16.1 Olly Stone to Keemo Paul, slow, short and outside off, Paul swipes across but only manages an inside edge that just goes past the stumps, stopped nicely by the keeper
That six from Keemo Paul should release all the pressure. Audacious and daring as he completely took everyone by surprise. The second timeout is on now.
