8.55pm: It wasn't without a few nerves, as Sunrisers lost 3 for 1 inside a single over from Bjorn Fortuin, but in the end they get home for a pretty comprehensive win with 10 balls to spare. Jordan Hermann gave the chase a solid base and Paarl Royals were always going to struggle to defend a score of 127, despite Fortuin and Lungi Ngidi both picking up two in two - the former only denied a hat-trick by the DRS. Anyway, that's a wrap from Boland Park tonight, but there's still some live action in today's round-the-clock T20 schedule, SA Women looking to chase 148 against India over in East London. We'll be back for more, more, more tomorrow. Bye!
