MI Cape Town’s Dominant Batting Performance
MI Cape Town posted a massive total of 222/3 in their 20 overs. Dewald Brevis played a standout knock, scoring 73* off just 32 balls, with six fours and six sixes. He was supported by Reeza Hendricks, who remained not out on 77 from 44 balls. The early batters, like van der Dussen (30) and Rickelton (22), also contributed, taking the total past 200. The Pretoria Capitals bowlers, including Migael Pretorius (69 runs in 4 overs) and Tom Rogers (54 runs in 4 overs), struggled to contain the big-hitting MI Cape Town batsmen.
Pretoria Capitals’ Response Falls Short
In reply, Pretoria Capitals could only manage 195/8 in their 20 overs, falling short by 27 runs. Will Smeed was the top scorer with 52 off 36 balls, while Will Jacks added 39 from 22 balls. However, regular wickets falling in the middle overs put Pretoria on the back foot. Rashid Khan’s 2/25 and Corbin Bosch’s 2/40 helped MI Cape Town stay in control. Dewald Brevis also contributed with the ball, picking up a crucial wicket in his single over.
Despite a late fight from Keagan Lion Cachet (34* off 18 balls), Pretoria Capitals couldn’t reach the target, and MI Cape Town sealed the win to knock them out of the tournament.
