MI Cape Town (MICT) and Pretoria Capitals (PRC) produced a classic in their last encounter in the ongoing SA20. Ryan Rickelton once again played a ruthless knock of 90 runs off 45 deliveries as Cape Town posted 248 runs on board in the first innings. Pretoria struggled to get going but Kyle Verreynne played a blistering knock of 116* runs off 52 deliveries but unfortunately, his valiant knock went in vain as the Kieron Pollard-led side won the match by 34 runs.

Their upcoming match at Newlands holds a lot of value. With 13 points to their name in nine matches, Cape Town are currently placed fourth on the points table and with a win over Capitals in their final league game, they can cement their place in the playoffs. The Wayne Parnell-led side, on the other hand, will have to beat Cape Town with a massive margin to win the bonus point and would require Joburg to lose their final league game against league leaders Durban Super Giants.
