Presentations coming up...

Earlier in the match, Durban's Super Giants won the toss and chose to bat first. They had a shaky start, but JJ Smuts and Quinton de Kock built a strong partnership, with both scoring half-centuries. Klaasen then added quick runs at the end, helping the team reach 190 runs. Bjorn Fortuin was the standout bowler for the Paarl Royals.

The bowlers of Durban's Super Giants did not start well and leaked away 29 in 3 overs, but a tight one by JJ Smuts picking up the wicket of Jason Roy pulled things back to some extent. The turning point was the wicket-maiden by Noor Ahmad, as that built the pressure and wickets started to tumble post that. Being a tricky track, it was bound to assist the slower bowlers as the game progressed, and the spinners came in handy. Marcus Stoinis was the pick of the bowlers, picking up 3. Keshav Maharaj and Reece Topley bowled well and scalped a couple of wickets.

Chasing down a high score on such a tricky track, it had to be the top-notch batters to turn up well, but apart from Jos Buttler, who scored 45, no other batter could go big. The game was evenly poised till the 8th over, but a brilliant wicket-maiden bowled by Noor Ahmad in the 9th to David Miller turned the tables, and things went downward from there on for the Royals. The side lost wickets in a flurry and were left chasing a big one toothless with the majority of the power hitters back in the hut. The lower order tried a bit but could only manage a handful of runs, which were not enough for the side.

The ploy to put Quinton de Kock in the middle order worked wonders for Durban's Super Giants. A brilliant knock from Quinton de Kock on a challenging surface has helped Durban's Super Giants defeat the Paarl Royals by a massive margin of 57 runs! Durban's Super Giants, by virtue of the bonus point, now go on top with 23 points to their name.

OUT! TAKEN! That's it! Durban's Super Giants WIN by a huge margin of 57 runs. Fuller length and outside off with a bit of pace-off, Lungi Ngidi clears his front foot to clear the long off fielder but ends up getting the bottom half on the shot which flies straight to Keshav Maharaj at long off who doesn't move an inch and grabs an easy one. Durban's Super Giants also get a bonus point as they managed to restrict the Paarl Royals below 152 and now they climb to the top of the points table with 23 points.

Fuller and on off, Tabraiz Shamsi hits it to widish covers for a single.

Yorker on stumps, this is dug to mid off for a single by Lungi Ngidi.

Tabraiz Shamsi is the last man in.

OUT! YOU MISS I HIT! 9 down and Topley gets his second. Bowls a straighter delivery on off, Obed McCoy goes for a big one to the leg side but only meets thin air and the ball bamboozles the sticks flirting with his outside edge. Durban's Super Giants are just a wicket away from a comprehensive win.

Excellent yorker to follow, Ngidi hits it to the leg side for a single.

Full and on off, Obed McCoy carves it to long on along the carpet for a single.
