Durban Super Giants vs Pretoria Capitals, 16th Match, SA20, 2025-26 - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Two great knocks, some excellent bowling, and an absolute thriller at Kingsmead! That's it from this one, hope you enjoyed our coverage. Until next time, it's goodbye!

Maharaj | Capitals captain: It's still home for me, just in different colours. We were really clinical on a good wicket against a strong DSG side. Roston showed some solid nerves towards the end against one of the best batters. We always know when you have an in batter at Kingsmead, it's never over. Most importantly the response we got from the previous game was crucial. The way we executed, we can be really happy.

Hope | Player of the Match: We won so enjoyed it a lot more. Coming to SA for the first time, playing in these conditions might be foreign to me but it's good to contribute. Had fun today. That's a tough one because I want to put my hand up for the team. But we all know when it's only two fielders out, it's good to maximise. So if I had to choose, I'll say opening the batting. Very important to understand your strengths. Adaptability is a big thing for me. About trying to limit dot balls. Pace off into the surface would grip a bit more sometimes, hold sometimes and bounce a bit more sometimes.

Aiden Markram | Durban Super Giants Captain: Not entirely, no. I still think a team can chase 200 on that wicket with a small boundary and good surface as well, so I'm still backing us to chase that. Obviously, it's always going to require something brilliant (to score 20+ in the last two overs), but I'm backing the batters to take care of that often enough. But you'll be able to find areas in the field, I'm sure. You can find maybe 15, 20 runs on both sides, and it all looks quite different afterwards. It's a matter of, well, I think you can base it solely on conditions. From a batting point of view, there's enough experience and power to run games batting first and run games chasing, so not too much of a thought for us, at least for the moment. But yeah, we backed ourselves, but we needed to come right and do some damage on our way forward. The more we know, we should have been 5-10 per cent better and, of course, the team is in a better position at the end of the night, so I'm always upset with it. Obviously, we never like to lose, but each guy will take their lessons, we will collaborate and get it all together tomorrow and take it on in two days' time again.

21:08 Local Time, 19:08 GMT, 00:38 IST: Take a bow, Roston Chase! He wouldn't have enjoyed being retired out with the bat earlier in the evening, then was expensive in his first few overs with the ball. But when it came down to the crunch, he stepped up against a rampaging Buttler who was about to pull off a single-handed heist. What a knock that was with hardly any support at the other end. The next highest score in the innings was just 27, and Buttler had to do it all by himself. He gave the Capitals an almighty scare but fell short in the end thanks to Chase's brilliance. Amid all the late drama, don't forget the hattrick from Ngidi, and the double-strike from Peters. And indeed the sensational hundred from Shai Hope earlier in the day. On a pitch that was slightly two-paced, we were treated to a couple of the best knocks in SA20 history, first from Hope and then from Buttler.

Roston Chase to Buttler, THATS OUT!! Run Out!!

If he nails another yorker, that'll be the game.

Roston Chase to Buttler, THATS OUT!! Run Out!!

No one deep on the off-side boundary. Just the long-off. Chase from round the wicket

Is it Chase for the final over? Yes it is. What can he do to stop Buttler.

It's basically a free hit for Maphaka
