SA20 match 5 review

 


Durban Super Giants beat MI Cape Town in match 5 of the SA20 by 5 wickets to get their campaign back on track. The Super Giants were excellent with the ball in hand and restricted MI Cape Town to 158 in their 20overs and then chased it down comfortably for a convincing victory. 

The MI Cape Town team will be disappointed with their performance with the bat in hand and will be hoping to improve when they take on Super Kings today. They will be happy with their performance with the ball as they put up a good fight in defending 158 but it was not enough as they were short 20 to 25 runs of a good score. 

The star of the match was Kyle Mayers for the Durban Super Giants as he scored 34 of 23 to give the Super Giants a good start to their chase and took 2-10 in 2 overs with the ball in hand.

This was a good match and there was some entertainment in the match as at one stage it looked like Grant Roloefsan and Goerge Linde would take the match away from the Super Giants similar to what happened in the Super Giants' previous match when Ferreira and Sheperd turned the match in favour of the super King. The Giant's bowlers managed to keep their calm and didn't allow the match to slip too far from their grip as they restricted MI Cape Town to a chasable target. '

Well done to Super Giants on their 1st victory of the SA20.
