Joburg Super Kings vs MI Cape Town, 4th Match - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

That's it from this game. This is the season of T20s and we have so many of them on show. We will be back soon with another one. Bye bye for now...

Faf du Plessis, Player of the Match: Was a tricky wicket. The new ball moved. The intent was needed. If you stand still, you are a sitting target. The DLS is way more complicated than I can imagine. We were excellent on the field. On a wet outfield. We didn't bowl well in the last 3 overs. We gave away 20 runs more than what we expected. Three to four wickets early broke their back while batting.

Rashid Khan: The toss is important when the weather is like this. But toss is not under our control. But we fought back amazingly well with the bat. The wicket was good to bat on. The weather made it tricky for the batters. We have played here before. The ball is coming nicely. The weather made it harder. But in the second innings, it was hard for the bowlers because of the rain. Before the competition, we had a good couple of weeks. Everyone is very excited. We think this is going to be a good year for us.

The rain has had the last laugh. And a few smiles for JSK as well. They have got the points. They win this by the DLS method and by 6 runs. The rain was always going to hamper this game and hence Faf decided to bowl after winning the toss. Knowing the DLS target did help them to stay ahead and plan it better. MICT started off on a disastrous note with the bat but recovered well. But that wasn't enough. The clouds threatened but stayed away for close to 25 overs. But then in the 6th over of JSK innings, the heavens opened up and we lost more than an hour. The chase was curtailed down to 19 overs. The little phase after that saw some scintillating action during that time. But the rains arrived again and the JSK managed to win it as they were ahead at that stage. Winning start for the team in yellow. MICT after a win have lost here.

21:48 Local Time, 19:48 GMT, 01:18 IST: Close to 20 minutes of play has been lost since we last went off. More overs are going to be reduced. Nothing new to update. But I really feel that the announcement shouldn't be taking too long now. We still are trying to hold on to the last straw of hope. So, we have it. JSK win by 6 runs (DLS).

21:37 Local Time, 19:37 GMT, 01:07 IST: The 22 yards and the nearby areas are well sheeted. And as mentioned earlier every minute lost will mean the overs will keep getting reduced. And we are assuming if we have a downpour of more than 15-20 minutes, we won't have a resumption. But then again my mathematics was never my strong point...

21:31 Local Time, 19:31 GMT, 01:01 IST: The players go off. Rabada is miffed. Not a bit pleased. The par score flashed by the electronic screen says 80 which should be by the end of the over. JSK are ahead by a thin margin. And the credit goes to Leus du Plooy and Bairstow till he was there. Remember, we have started losing overs. Every minute lost will cut down the overs further. There was a big storm predicted. Has that come down now? The 22 yards has been covered in a prompt manner. More covers being dragged down inside. Seems this might be a big delay. We are hoping that we will get more action. The crowd haven't started running helter skelter which tells us that the rain might be in moderate amount. A few of them have their raincoats on. The MICT players are lurking near their dugout. They desperately want to go back in and have one final throw of the dice.

Wihan Lubbe, left handed bat, comes to the crease

Rabada to Bairstow, out Bowled!! Rabada has squared up Bairstow. That was a peach of a leg-cutter. The ball lands, nips away, Bairstow got opened up like a can of soda but the fizz belonged to Rabada. The speedster has struck. The ball was a rippah. Bairstow was undone by a superb delivery. This game is alive again. Just when it seemed the JSK team were bossing the chase, Rabada has decided to come to the party. Bairstow was lining up for a heave but had less time to adjust once the ball nibbled away. Bairstow b Rabada 14(14) [4s-1 6s-1]

Rashid Khan to Bairstow, 1 run, one run to end the over. Backed away and slashed it over point. The man at deep cover picked it on the bounce. Bairstow having a word with Rashid Khan. He had a word or two with Rabada earlier. Seems to be chirpy...
