Sunrisers Eastern Cape were put in to bat first after losing the toss. Their batting performance was disappointing, with only Marco Jansen managing to put up a fight. Jansen scored a brilliant 51 runs off 35 balls, which included 4 fours and 3 sixes. He was the only batter to get into double figures.

The rest of the Sunrisers Eastern Cape lineup crumbled under pressure. Ben Bedingham, Zak Crawley, Aiden Markram, and others failed to score big.

Eathan Bosch (2 wickets for 18 runs) and Dupavillon (3 wickets for 32 runs) were the standout bowlers for Pretoria Capitals, while Neesham and Senuran Muthusamy also contributed with the ball.

Pretoria Capitals Chase Down the Target with Ease

Pretoria Capitals had a solid chase ahead of them, and they didn’t take long to get there. Will Jacks (27 runs off 23 balls) and Rahmanullah Gurbaz (7 runs off 9 balls) gave them a good start. However, SEC’s bowlers made a few breakthroughs, with Richard Gleeson taking 2 wickets for 31 runs and Craig Overton removing Gurbaz.

Despite losing early wickets, Pretoria Capitals managed to keep the run rate steady. Rilee Rossouw (12 runs) and Liam Livingstone (14 runs not out) formed a partnership, but it was Marques Ackerman’s unbeaten 39 runs off 30 balls that guided the Capitals to victory.
