Paarl Royals vs Joburg Super Kings, Eliminator, SA20, 2025-26 - Player Highlights

Daniel Worrall to Lhuan-dre Pretorius, out Lhuan-dre Pretorius Run Out!! 1 run completed. Pretorius is run out and is livid. Swings his bat in frustration before walking off. Oh what a lucky break this is for the Super Kings as he was looking so dangerous. Clips it gently through midwicket, wants to come back for two but his foot slips a little while turning because he's running on the grass and not on the pitch. Not sure it would've made a difference as he ended up being well short of the crease despite the dive. Was a gun throw from Matt de Villiers, flat and on the bounce to the keeper.
