- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.4 picks out long-off! Finally one of those big hits goes to hand - Bosch had a chance earlier but dropped it. Breetzke has played a superb knock but he loses his shape this time, charging out and smearing flat to the man back 118/31.6 holes out to deep midwicket! De Zorzi winds into a booming slog-sweep, but Ingram is back on the rope and clings on brilliantly with a reach high above his head. Safely in control inside the rope and an expensive over finishes in success 15/16.6 holes out to long-off! de Kock completely muffed that one, planted the front foot, flashed the blade through the line, but didn't get any power through his offering 76/213.5 smashed to cover, Klaasen's a goner! Fired down on leg stump as Klaasen makes room looking to clatter over the off side, but he doesn't get the elevation. Rossouw is right in the firing line and takes it comfortably at chest height. The DSG dangerman departs 133/511.6 thumped down the throat of long-on! Muthusamy gets his second of the over to check DSG. Paul stepped outside leg and looked to honk this over the ropes but didn't get his timing, well held by Ingram coming in 118/414.5 back of a length and nicked behind! Tame dismissal from Mulder and the DSG slide continues. Tight lines from Dupavillon and he's rewarded with a meek outside edge through to the keeper 136/618.4 short ball, plopped back into the hands of the bowler! Maharaj is hurried on the pull and the ball loops softly up into the leg side for Dupavillon to claim a comfortable catch. Capitals continue to finish well after DSG's flying start 159/718.6 dug in, smoked leg side... picks out the fielder! Dala connected pretty well but didn't have enough on it to clear the man back, safely pouched by Ingram on the rope at deep square leg. Third of the night for Dupavillon 159/819.3 clubbed to long-on, gone first ball! Parnell hits a length, Noor swings rustily across the line and it's a straightforward catch for Ackermann running in. Not the greatest thinking from the No. 10, as it leaves Smuts stranded at the non-striker's end 164/9Extras6 (lb 2, w 4)TOTAL174/9 (20 Overs, RR: 8.7)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Tony de Zorzi, 1.6 ov), 2-76 (Quinton de Kock, 6.6 ov), 3-118 (Matthew Breetzke, 11.4 ov), 4-118 (Keemo Paul, 11.6 ov), 5-133 (Heinrich Klaasen, 13.5 ov), 6-136 (Wiaan Mulder, 14.5 ov), 7-159 (Keshav Maharaj, 18.4 ov), 8-159 (Junior Dala, 18.6 ov), 9-164 (Noor Ahmad, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.2 smeared over backward point - Dala grabs it at the second attempt! It was a difficult chance and he went for it one-handed above his head, managed to palm the ball back in... and then threw himself full length to hold the rebound! Fine work by the fast man, and Salt departs second ball 0/18.5 straight through him! A misjudgement from Jacks and is that the match? Maybe the dew is kicking in, that length ball skidded on a touch flatter, Jacks was looking into the night sky over deep midwicket, as his middle stump got the flick! 75/35.1 wide on the crease, hits the pitch back of a length, draws a loose open-faced slash, and under-edged into the stumps! Naveen strikes first ball to further dent Capitals 40/216.2 hoicked to deep midwicket! Rossouw is put out of his misery... goes for the slog over the leg side but gets nowhere near enough on it, safely held coming in off the rope. Painful strike rate of 37.03 for the Capitals No. 4 as he leaves the field, kicking his bat in front of him 123/710.4 keeps low, pings off stump! Trapped on the crease and the zing bails go zinging! This innings is going south rather rapidly now 89/413.3 straight through him! Noor befuddles Ingram, sneaks the ball between bat and pad, lights up the stumps! First wicket of the night to go with a miserly spell and DSG look to be closing in here. Not sure if it was the wrong'un or a stock ball that Ingram misread, but the effect is the same 103/514.4 full and wide, lashed to mid-off - Muthusamy is sent back but beaten by a direct hit! Rossouw didn't want to run to the danger end and his partner pays the price. Breetzke had to dive to cut the ball off but then fired down the stumps, dead-eye style. DSG closing in 113/618.3 top-edged to short third, Dala has four! Bangs it on a length, angling across and miscued to the man on the edge of the ring. That is pretty much that for Capitals' hopes tonight 144/818.5 timbeeeerrrr... Dala gets his five-for! Scrambled seam, slices through Bosch as he swings for the pickets, middle stump rocked back. Dala is the man for DSG, in only his second game of the tournament after injury 145/9Extras25 (b 8, lb 3, nb 2, w 12)TOTAL166/9 (20 Overs, RR: 8.3)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Phil Salt, 0.2 ov), 2-40 (Kyle Verreynne, 5.1 ov), 3-75 (Will Jacks, 8.5 ov), 4-89 (Colin Ackermann, 10.4 ov), 5-103 (Colin Ingram, 13.3 ov), 6-113 (Senuran Muthusamy, 14.4 ov), 7-123 (Rilee Rossouw, 16.2 ov), 8-144 (Wayne Parnell, 18.3 ov), 9-145 (Eathan Bosch, 18.5 ov)
