Pretoria Capitals vs MI Cape Town, 22nd Match, SA20, 2025-26 - HighlightsPC vs MICT, 22nd Match, SA20, 2025-26 - Highlights

Boult to Rutherford, out Caught by Pooran!! That's gone a mile into the Pretoria sky - Pooran settles under it, watches it all along, opens up his body and completes a good catch at long-off. Was a slot ball and Rutherford will be disappointed at having not put it away - went too hard and it came right off the bottom of the bat, still needed some catching and Pooran was very calm under it. Rutherford c Pooran b Boult 53(27) [4s-3 6s-5]

Boult to Russell, FOUR, nicely played, nothing wrong with the ball, it's a near perfect wide yorker from Boult - Russell somehow reaches out and squeezes it into the gap behind backward point

Karim Janat to Rutherford, SIX, 24 off the over, a leg-stump half-volley and Rutherford has simply whipped it over square leg, sails over the ropes for a maximum and brings up Rutherford's 1st 50 of SA20 2025-26. He's been outstanding as a finisher and he's on it once again

Karim Janat to Rutherford, SIX, clobbered, on a length and angling across the left-hander, Janat tries to get away from Rutherford's hitting area - but the left-hander throws his bat and carves it over deep cover, shorter boundary and it sailed into the grass-banks

Karim Janat to Russell, FOUR, short, wide and four, sheer power from Russell - width on offer and he lashes the square cut past point, the fielder in the ring has no chance and the ball races away to the ropes

Karim Janat to Brevis, out Caught by Rickelton!! The move has worked - Janat has removed the dangerous Brevis - shortened the length and gets some extra bounce from the SuperSport pitch, Brevis swings across the line, gets a thin edge and Rickelton does the rest. A handy innings from Brevis, but the Capitals would've wanted him to bat right through. Brevis c Rickelton b Karim Janat 34(19) [4s-1 6s-3]

Karim Janat to Brevis, SIX, smashed, full-toss from Janat and it's easy pickings for Brevis - a solid base as he hammered the drive high over long-on for a maximum

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, SIX, massive, length ball in the slot and Rutherford doesn't miss it - gets right under the length and then hammers the drive back over the bowler's head, went sailing into the stands and it'll not come back - new balls please

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, FOUR, oh dear! van Vuuren has had a tough little time - dropped the catch and has now fumbled a boundary - fuller length delivery and Rutherford lashed the drive to deep cover, he had it covered, but took his eyes off it at the last moment and let the ball slip out of his grasp

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, FOUR, nicely played, fuller length delivery on the pads and it's whipped through backward square leg - the fielder in the deep is very square and has no chance

Corbin Bosch to Brevis, 1 run, another chance and it's put down at deep mid-wicket - another no-look hit from Brevis, hit high on the bat and the timing went awry - the man at deep mid-wicket ran across to his left, but he never looked settled - the ball did swirl around and he had to reach out in the end, letting the ball pop out

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, 1 run, a chance, Bosch calls for it and just about manages to lay his fingers onto it - could he have left it to either of the two fielders running in from the deep? Was a length ball outside off, right in the slot and Rutherford went too hard on the slog - gets a thick top-edge and the ball lobs high towards cover

Rabada to Brevis, 1 run, another no-look hit - it's caught in front of the ropes at deep square leg - Boult, the fielder - he knows that the momentum would make him touch the ropes, so he flicks it back into play, but he's lobbed it too far away, slips as he went back and then can't get back to take the catch on the rebound. Was a back of a length and Brevis swung through the line

Rabada to Brevis, SIX, the boundaries have started to flow - short and wide of off - Brevis throws his hands on the cut, gets on top of the bounce and clatters it over deep backward point - such was the impact that the bottom hand came off

Rabada to Brevis, SIX, a no-look hit and Brevis has flicked it deep into the stands at backward square leg - a length ball and Brevis nonchalantly whips it over backward square leg, a 73m hit

Boult to Rutherford, SIX, 20 off the over, a horrid full-toss from Boult - this has been a poor over, Rutherford shuffles across and swings it high over square leg, that went a long long way - they check for the height, but it was dipping and is deemed as a fair delivery, a 98m maximum

Boult to Rutherford, FOUR, this is turning out to be an expensive over from Boult - another full-toss and Rutherford muscles it past square leg, didn't get hold of the shot, but has placed it past square leg

Boult to Rutherford, SIX, massive, full-toss from Boult and the ball disappears - Rutherford leans forward, holds his shape and hoists it high over long-on for a 89m hit

Corbin Bosch to Rutherford, leg byes, 1 run, yorker length delivery on the leg-stump line - Rutherford jams the bat down and squeezes an under-edge, behind square on the on-side for a single

Rashid Khan to Rutherford, no run, Rutherford has been given OUT LBW and he's reviewed it almost immediately - did he get an inside edge? Clear gap between bat and ball - UltraEdge confirms the same, onto ball-tracking and it's bouncing over the stumps - NOT OUT is the call. The wrong 'un from Rashid, drifted in and then straightened onto the left-hander, Rutherford was playing for the turn as he looked to clip, misses it completely and struck high on the back-thigh

Rabada to Jordan Cox, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! That's a top top yorker and Cox can't do much - very full and fired onto the stumps, Cox backed away and can't jam his bat down in time - beaten for sheer pace and the ball clatters into the base of middle-stump - as easy as it gets and the Capitals have lost another wicket. Jordan Cox b Rabada 24(25) [4s-1 6s-1]

Rabada to Jordan Cox, SIX, cheeky and six, a one-handed swipe and Cox has timed it well - pre-empted the lap and Rabada dragged the length back, but Cox still connects sweetly with the lap and sends it sailing into the crowd at long leg

Rashid Khan to Brevis, FOUR, cracking shot, dragged short by Rashid - Brevis backs away and flat-bats the cut past cover, the timing is good and the fielder in the deep is well beaten

Linde to Jordan Cox, FOUR, beautifully played, Cox brings out the reverse sweep - gets into a great position and then hammers it over backward point, bounces away to the ropes

Rashid Khan to Wihan Lubbe, out Caught by Karim Janat!! Rashid Khan gets his man. In an attempt to up the ante, Lubbe perishes. Looks like the googly on a length outside off, Lubbe Lubbe shapes to heave across the line and the ball goes up in the air off the top-edge. A simple catch for Janat at short third man. Wihan Lubbe c Karim Janat b Rashid Khan 21(19) [4s-1 6s-1]

Rashid Khan to Wihan Lubbe, no run, 95kph, Lubbe has been adjudged lbw and he is quick to review. Did he get an edge? Full from Rashid and Lubbe gets down to slog over midwicket. It's hit the back leg adjacent to the stumps. There's a spike on UltraEdge when the ball is close to the bat. Definite inside edge and it's a successful review

Rashid Khan to Wihan Lubbe, SIX, 96kph, much-needed six for the Capitals. Rashid overpitches, Lubbe gets under it by slightly bending his back leg and then clubs it over cow corner

Rashid Khan to Wihan Lubbe, leg byes, 1 run, 90kph, appeal for lbw, turned down. Lubbe moves back and across to heave across the line and misses. Impact on the back leg seems to be outside off

Corbin Bosch to Wihan Lubbe, FOUR, 123kph, slower ball, wrong line - down leg - and Lubbe flicks it fine of the short fine leg fielder. A boundary to end the powerplay and spoil Bosch's over

Rabada to Connor Esterhuizen, out Bowled!! Rabada strikes his in his first over! 128kph, slower ball on a short of a good length, Esterhuizen stays leg-side of the ball to drive and is beaten on the inside edge as the ball moves in a touch. Hears the death rattle and Esterhuizen's knock comes to an end. Connor Esterhuizen b Rabada 24(20) [4s-5]

Rabada to Connor Esterhuizen, FOUR, 143kph, low full toss, Esterhuizen drives uppishly to the left of the bowler and Rabada barely had any time to react. Beats mid-off to his right and runs away quickly to the fence

Boult to Connor Esterhuizen, FOUR, 137kph, pitched up delivery, Esterhuizen plays a lovely off-drive off the front foot. Stand and deliver stuff from Esterhuizen who poses for the photographs

Linde to Shai Hope, out Caught by Pooran!! George Linde gets his revenge! SIX and OUT. Slower ball through the air, the ball drifts into the right-hander and then grips a bit. Hope once again moves leg-side to replicate the shot he played off the previous delivery. Skies it up off the bottom part of the bat and Pooran backpedals at cover to snaffle it. The in-form batter departs cheaply. Shai Hope c Pooran b Linde 7(5) [6s-1]

Linde to Shai Hope, SIX, 92kph, Hope moves leg-side and clears his front leg to hoist this fullish ball over long-on. Doesn't bother to see where the ball is heading

Boult to Connor Esterhuizen, FOUR, 135kph, poor ball from Boult and gets punished. He pulls his length back and the line is down leg. Easy pickings for Esterhuizen who stands tall to flick it behind square on the leg-side. 3 boundaries = 12 runs off the over

Boult to Connor Esterhuizen, FOUR, 132kph, full toss and put away. No real swing and Esterhuizen whips it over midwicket. Second boundary for Esterhuizen

Boult to Connor Esterhuizen, FOUR, 131kph, over the wicket, pitched up, the line is on off and Esterhuizen drives firmly to the right of the bowler and to the left of mid-on
