Match summary:

Sunrisers Eastern Cape win by 44 runs

Marco Jansen 71*(31) | Liam Dawson 2/27 (4)
Jos Buttler 64(45) | Evan Jones 2/51 (4)

As it turns out, the horrible exhibition of death bowling from the Paarl Royals in the first innings played a major part in them losing today. They were in the game as long as Jos Buttler and Jason Roy were in the middle, but the scoreboard pressure, coupled by the slow-ish Boland Park deck, made life hell for the incoming - and soon outgoing batters.

A total of zero Paarl Royals middle order batters were able to register a double-digit score today. Buttler and Roy laid the foundation early on with a brisk start, and at one point, it seemed like the Paarl Royals would clinch this with some time to spare. Buttler, who has been thriving on situations such as these, meant business with his scoops, slogs and reverse sweeps.

Once Roy was dismissed, though, the climbing required rate started to tell on the batters. Both Buttler and Miller perished having mis-hit a delivery that was there to be put away. None of the middle-order batters were able to adjust to the pace of the wicket after that, and with the asking rate nearer to 20 than 10 for most of the second half of the innings, Paarl Royals were never going to get there.

19.6 Simon Harmer to Bjorn Fortuin, skied... safe! Full, fired in outside off, Fortuin moved across his stumps and looked to finish the game with a six, didn't get all of this one. The ball flew up towards mid on and landed in the deep. Just a single, and the Sunrisers Eastern Cape, with a 44-run win today, seal that spot for the first qualifier!

19.5 Simon Harmer to Lungisani Ngidi, full, fired on leg stump, Ngidi heaves this one behind square for a run

19.4 Simon Harmer to Lungisani Ngidi, in the blockhole outside off, Ngidi can't get bat on this one

19.3 Simon Harmer to Lungisani Ngidi, SIX MORE! Bit of a half-tracker on middle, Ngidi shaped for the slog, and heaved this one over the leaping fielder and ropes at long on!

19.2 Simon Harmer to Lungisani Ngidi, SIX! Ngidi with some fireworks to close off the night! Full, floated on middle, Ngidi freed his arms and gave this one a whack through its line. The ball flies into the banks at mid wicket

19.1 Simon Harmer to Bjorn Fortuin, on a good length on off, cut towards sweeper cover for a run

18.6 Marco Jansen to Wihan Lubbe, OUT! Lubbe perishes trying to ramp! Full, on middle stump, Lubbe shaped for the ramp, didn't go to plan at all, and he ended up spooning this one to Malan at short fine

18.3 Marco Jansen to Bjorn Fortuin, yorker on off, Fortuin drills this one towards cover for a single

18.2 Marco Jansen to Bjorn Fortuin, Fortuin travels the width of the pitch to try and ramp that! Jansen kept it wide of him, and Fortuin barely managed to scoop it over the fine leg fielder. Two taken

18.1 Marco Jansen to Wihan Lubbe, back of a length outside off, Lubbe looked to go over cover, miscued this one towards long on instead. Single taken
