Overview
- Ryan Rickelton struck an unbeaten 113 off 60 balls to become the first player with two SA20 centuries, anchoring MI Cape Town’s 234/3.
- Rassie van der Dussen added 65 in a 129-run opening stand that set up the visitors’ commanding total.
- Joburg Super Kings closed on 198/5 as James Vince made 77 and Dian Forrester finished 80*, with George Linde and Kagiso Rabada taking two wickets each.
- JSK’s chase was disrupted when captain Faf du Plessis was unable to bat, and debutant Michael Pepper fell early after a Rabada review.
- The result is MI Cape Town’s second win in seven matches, lifting them to fifth with three league games left against Pretoria Capitals and Sunrisers Eastern Cape (twice), while Rickelton later explained his KL Rahul-style ‘Kantara’ celebration and reports noted his omission from South Africa’s T20 World Cup squad.
