MI Cape Town delivered an emphatic all-round performance at Newlands, ensuring their place in the SA20 Playoffs. The highlight of their masterclass came with Dewald Brevis's acrobatic catch, setting the tone for a dominant fielding display.

Their comprehensive victory was built on a formidable bowling display, with Corbin Bosch and Kagiso Rabada spearheading the assault.

In response, Ryan Rickelton and Rassie van der Dussen cruised through the run chase with an unbroken 110-run partnership.

MI Cape Town's dominating form offers a tantalizing prospect for the playoffs, with their all-round excellence setting a high standard. Meanwhile, the Sunrisers will face the Royals in a crucial league match to secure their playoff spot. The stakes continue to rise as teams vie for advancement in the tournament.
