SA20 match 20 review

 


The Capitals beat MI Cape Town convincingly to earn another bonus point win. The Capitals were excellent with both bat and ball. Will Jacks led the way with the bat as he scored 62 off 27 as the Capitals posted 182-8 in their 20 overs.

The MI Cape Town captain Rashid Khan was the best bowler as he took 3-16 in his 4 overs he also reached 500 T20 career wickets. The MI Cape Town team looked good in the chase while Brevis was at the crease as he scored 46 off 30. Once he and Sam Curran 22 off 18 wickets fell the rest of the batsmen didn't show any resistance as they were bowled out for 130. 

The Capital's best bowlers were Parnell 3-14 and Nortje 3-22. 

This loss means MI Cape Town have dropped to 4th in the table and will need to win their reaming 3 matches if they are to have a chance to make the semifinals.

SA20 review

 The SA20 season 2 has ended with Sunrisers Eastern Cape successfully defending their title to win back-to-back titles. The Sunrisers were the team to beat as they played an excellent brand of cricket and dominated throughout the tournament winning 7 matches and losing 2 with 1 no result to top the table in the league stage.  The final of SA20 season 2 was played by the 2 best teams of the tournament the Sunrisers Eastern Cape and Durban Super Giants. Sunrisers proved too good for Super Giants beating them by 89 runs to not only successfully defend their SA20 title but also win the head-to-head between the 2 teams 3-1.  SA20 season 2 saw some unbelievable performances with quite a few young South African players taking the opportunity and shining. The young standout SA batsman were:  Rickelton 530 runs ave 58.88, strike-rate 173.77 Breetzke 416 runs ave 32, strike-rate 135.50  Stubbs 301 runs ave 60.20, strike-rate, 168.15   Mulder 297 runs...

Proteas vs England 3rd ODI

  The ODI series between Proteas and England ended with a 2-1 win for the Proteas. The series has been competitive and entertaining.  Proteas won the toss and chose to bowl. They started off well but then Buttler and Malan put together a partnership of 232 off 211. This partnership brought England right back into the match as they recovered from 14 for 3 to post 346-7 in their 50 overs.  In reply, the Proteas were always ahead of the scoring rate, the only problem was they lost wickets at regular intervals, which is why they ended up being bowled out for 287. Archer was the star picking up 6-40 of 9.1 overs. England won the match by 59 runs. The Proteas can take a lot of positives from this series as they have given themselves a good chance to gain the last direct qualification spot.  Writer : Ebrahim Yusuf Omar
