Commentary

"180-190 would be defendable on this wicket" AB de Villiers was very confident in the commentary box at the mid-way stage of the first innings and he was right. The Capitals came up with a plan, executed it to perfection, and pinned MI Cape Town down in front of their fans. More cricketing action coming your way tomorrow and make sure to follow Sportskeeda for all the LIVE updates. On that note, it's time to end the coverage here, hope you enjoyed it. Until next time, this is Pragadeesh and Pradeep saying goodbye and goodnight

Wayne Parnell (Pretoria Capitals) - It's really nice to win a game like this. The bowling has been excellent throughout the competition. As a leader, we would try to give different roles to the players and obviously take the pressure off from them as well. On Jacques Kallis) Obviously a legend of the game, he is very calm and it's great to have him. T20 is fast-paced and you need calm heads in the dressing room

Will Jacks gets the well deserved Player of the Match! Here's what he has to say: Great win, my fifty runs and we win with bonus, absolutely delighted, my first time playing here, loved it. Crowds every game, sold out, definitely want to come back. New thing, every place in the country have different conditions, enjoyed learning here, it's been great fun. Just try to put bowlers under pressure, play good shots.

Rashid Khan (MI Cape Town Captain): It was a right decision to bowl first, Jack blew us away in the powerplay, it's hard to come back into the game without taking the wicket in the powerplay with 82 on the board, we were happy to chase 160-155. It's the last part of the tournament, you can't tinker too much, keep it simple and take one game at a time, need to keep calm, we have a good break, 7 or 8 days, just need to refresh and come back. Thank you to the crowd, they have turned in good numbers in all the games and happy to play in front of huge crowds.

In stark contrast to everyone's expectation, this match turned into a one-sided tussle as Pretoria Capitals were so clinical with the ball and eventually won by a big margin to secure a bonus point. Brevis was the only batter, who looked promising in the middle but the rest of the batters looked clueless and struggled to find their timing. Cape Town has always been a chase-friendly venue in the past but it turned out to be a myth tonight. The Capitals' bowlers didn't panic as they were spot on from their line and length from the word go

Rickelton was removed inside the powerplay and the partnership between Brevis and Curran instilled some momentum into the innings but Adil Rashid dismissed the latter with a ripper. Brevis took on Rashid and smacked a few maximums but once he fell prey to Nortje's slow delivery, wickets kept tumbling for the hosts. They lost seven wickets for just 29 runs and suffered a massive defeat

18.1 Wayne Parnell to Kagiso Rabada, OUT! OFF-STUMP FLOORED! MI have been thumped tonight completely by a spirited Pretoria Capitals. Full toss into Rabada on the off-stump, misses a straight one, goes through to peg back the off-stump. Capitals firm up their spot at the top now.

Kagiso Rabada b Wayne Parnell 1 (3b, 0x4, 0x6)

That was a searing first-up delivery to the new batter. Nortje didn't show any mercy to Rabada but somehow he keeps it down. You could see that he straightaway walks to Rabada after the over to apologize

17.6 Anrich Nortje to Kagiso Rabada, back of a length, well outside the off-stump as Rabada smacks it but straight to the extra-cover fielder for no run.

17.5 Anrich Nortje to Kagiso Rabada, OUCH! Nasty bumper first up for Rabada. Short and takes Rabada by surprise by the hostile delivery, he puts his bat in front to defend but that thuds on the gloves in the end.

It's Nortje to Rabada now

Kagiso Rabada, LHB, walks in at no.11

Nortje can't stop taking wickets. The Capitals are on the verge of a big win, hardly a very few would've predicted this outcome

17.4 Anrich Nortje to Jofra Archer, OUT! SMACKED STRAIGHT TO MID-OFF AND GONE! Nortje has a three-for, sheer pace from this man. Short on the fourth stump, Archer looking to thump it over mid-of but just didn't get enough elevation as as Parnell times his jump to pouch it.

Jofra Archer c Wayne Parnell b Anrich Nortje 1 (2b, 0x4, 0x6)

17.3 Anrich Nortje to Delano Potgieter, back of a length on the off-stump, Potgieter on the backfoot makes room and squeezes it to backward point for one.

17.2 Anrich Nortje to Jofra Archer, short delivery into Archer, stood tall and smacked it straight down the ground, no timing on it as they get just a single.

Jofra Archer, RHB, walks in at no.10

17.1 Anrich Nortje to Rashid Khan, OUT! UP IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Nortje picks up his second of the night. Wheels are coming off now for MI. Short into Rashid, went to pull but top edged it straight up and Bosch at extra-cover takes a sitter.

Rashid Khan c Eathan Bosch b Anrich Nortje 2 (3b, 0x4, 0x6)

Anrich Nortje (3-0-19-1) comes back into the attack

Delano Potgieter, LHB, walks in at no.10

Parnell ends Rassie's painful stay at the crease before flattening the off-stump off Odean Smith
