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.

Australia vs Pakistan 3rd test day 3 review

The third day of the third Test match between Australia and Pakistan was exciting, with both teams battling it out on the field. Australia resumed on 116-2 with Labuschange and Smith continuing to score steadily and take Australia closer to Pakistan's first innings score of 313. Labuschange and Smith added 71 runs before both Smith and Labuschange lost their wickets one after the other. Australia then managed a few small partnerships to take their score to 289 before collapsing to 299 all out giving Pakistan a first-innings lead of 14 runs. Pakistan began their 2nd innings in the worst way possible by losing 2 quick wickets in opener Abdulla Shafiq and Captain Shan Masood both for ducks. Saim Ayub and Babar Azam then gave Pakistan some hope with a partnership of 57 before Pakistan's batting collapsed from 58-2 to 68-7 to end the day staring at defeat and missing another chance to win their 1st test in 28 years. Pakistan last won a test match in Australia in 1995...
