Commentary

The early finish allows us to have a longer night's sleep. This is Dwaipayan Mukherjee, signing off with my co-commentator, Arya Sekhar Chakravarthy.

You do not come across these matches often. As Parnell said, to win games like these you need miracles, which is exactly what his team needed after getting bowled out for 52. But that never happened. It was short and shiny for as long as it lasted.

The Capitals will have to regroup and focus on how to not get traumatised even before the first ball of the next match - because the opposition remains the same for them. The crowd support will get swapped though. They still have a chance of qualifying if they end up winning all of their remaining matches.

It is very crucial to follow where Capitals go from here, with this morale-sapping defeat. Kallis and the rest of the coaching staff will need to pick the players up and ask them to shrug this performance. The only direction from here would be upwards.

Ottniel Baartman | Player of the Match: The seamers set the tone upfront. Luckily I got a wicket first ball and enjoying it. Looking at how Worrall and Jansen started, it made my job easier from the get-go. Probably both, a wicket for the seamers and it was a perfect pitch for Test cricket. Nice bunch of lads we have. This is special. Hope we can keep turning up and perform like this.

Aiden Markram (Sunrisers Hyderabad captain): Didn't wake up expecting a game like this but you take that any day when we are on the winning side. We bowled really well and luckily found the edges. The bowlers put the ball in the right areas. Yeah that's tough. It's known for slightly low and slow conditions. The guys had to still put it in the right areas. Yeah it was a nice win for us. Like I said waking up today, didn't expect this game. Pretoria will pose a different challenge, will address that from tomorrow.

Wayne Parnell (Pretoria Capitals captain): I don't know where to start. If you lose four wickets in the powerplay, we lose most of the matches. Percentage was even worse in this game. Losing 9 wickets for 20 odd. It was just doing enough laterally and bounce side. They bowled in the right areas but when you are bowling first you know how the pitch is. I mean we can try and find reasons especially with the quality we have. We could have scraped through to something. We tried to get somewhere over 100 to give us something to bowl at. We have to reset now. I mean honestly bowled out for 40 odd is not ideal and you are never going to win this. Like I mentioned, I hadn't seen a game where both teams get to a low score.

Sunrisers Eastern Cape (54/1) defeat Pretoria Capitals (52 all out) by 9 wickets

Tom Abell - 31* (22) | Jordan Hermann - 20* (17)
Wayne Parnell - 1/19 | Eathan Bosch - 0/14

The game had a foregone conclusion once the score read 52 all out. Malan fell early but Hermann and Abell finished it off with no fuss. The match was virtually sealed with the emphatic bowling performance. It was a proper humbling for the visitors in front of a raucous audience that have bestowed their vociferous support for their side that were the champion team last year and have started to play like one in this season with 3 wins in a row now.

This win takes them to the 2nd spot where they sit handsomely with 15 points. But the story is not limited to just that. This victory with more than 13 overs left gives them a booster shot to the net run rate that now reads +1.28, also above Paarl Royals who are sitting at the top spot with a NRR of +1.22.

The abysmal season for Pretoria Capitals continue to get worse. They have played more matches (5) than the points that they have secured so far (4). Wayne Parnell and his men would be best served to completely erase today's performance from their memory. Only if that was possible.

Post match presentation to follow -

6.5 Daryn Dupavillon to Jordan Hermann, FOUR! That's game set and match for the Sunrisers Eastern Cape. What a thoroughly dominating performance by the Sunrisers. Hermann stands tall and tries to punch this good-length delivery a tad outside off on the up, squirts it away from the outside half of the bat, in between the short third man and the backward point fielder.

6.4 Daryn Dupavillon to Jordan Hermann, back of a length delivery outside off, cut away straight to the backward point fielder.

6.3 Daryn Dupavillon to Jordan Hermann, that zips through the surface. Was there a nick there? A beautiful away swinger on a fulllsh-length a shade outside off, ultra-edge suggests nothing though.

3 runs needed from 82 balls!

6.2 Daryn Dupavillon to Tom Abell, works away the hard-length delivery around middle, down towards the square leg region and takes a single.

6.1 Daryn Dupavillon to Tom Abell, FOUR! That was a fractionally fullish-length away swinger well outside off, Abell throws his hands at that and the outside edge flies away past the slip cordon, the deep third man fielder was too wide and couldn't quite parry that back in play.

If it makes the Capitals fans feel any better, the lowest ever score in T20 cricket is when Isle of Man played Spain and they got knocked over for - wait for it - 10. They scored 42 more runs than that. There is always a positive outlook to things!

Now is what they would hate to read. Their opposition need 8 runs from 14 overs. Should not prove to be very challenging.

5.6 Wayne Parnell to Tom Abell, runs away the back of a length delivery a tad outside off, down towards the deep third man region and rotates the strike.

5.5 Wayne Parnell to Tom Abell, SIX! That has been nailed from his presence. Fractionally shorter from Parnell and Abell gets into position early and dispatches that well over the deep square leg fielder. The Eastern Cape just 9 more runs away from the victory target.

5.4 Wayne Parnell to Tom Abell, FOUR! That has been absolutely crunched. An overpitched delivery a shade outside off, crunched all along the carpet, wide of the mid off fielder and races across the deck and off to the fence.

5.3 Wayne Parnell to Tom Abell, again beats the outside edge of Abell's bat. On a good-length a tad outside off, keeps a tad low on this occasion.

5.2 Wayne Parnell to Tom Abell, pushes away the good-length delivery around off, straight to the extra cover fielder.

5.1 Wayne Parnell to Tom Abell, the last two deliveries has been on the right channel and see what has happened. Abell plays for the line and the ball leaves the right-hander after pitching on a good-length.
