Quinton de Kock, Durban Super Giants captain: Setting a total like that doesn't happen often, we came off confident, I was pleased with the success of some of our boys. Once there was a bit of momentum, we wanted to keep going with it. All the guys who went in did it, at the cost of sacrificing a wicket. We had to get that bonus point. The boys brought it to the team, pleased with it. (On Junior Dala) He's been hungry to play, he's been working hard off the field, tonight he came out with the opportunity that we gave to him, and he took it with both hands, he bowled really well for us. Now we need the Pretoria Capitals to do to the Paarl Royals what we did to them today for us to go through!

Heinrich Klaasen (Player Of The Match): Just my favorite place to play cricket. Very pleased it came off tonight. The openers said it was a good wicket. It's a good wicket, and I played a lot of cricket here. If you take 2 or 3 balls, it's the best place to play good cricketing shots. Just try not to premeditate and execute the game plan. Hopefully, we get through, otherwise, it won't mean a lot.

Theunis de Bruyn, Pretoria Capitals captain: Yeah, unfortunately, we didn't wake up.One team which has nothing to lose played amazing cricket we never woke up. I don't know what to say. We have to focus on the next game. It's difficult to motivate each other. We played back-to-back matches, so fatigue can be a factor both physically and mentally. (On Wayne Parnell) We have to wait till tomorrow to hear any good news.

Durban Super Giants win by 151 runs

A run-chase of 255 was always going to flatten the Pretoria Capitals to the ground. They made the conditions look 10 times harder than what it seemed like earlier today when the DSG top-order wreaked havoc. The pace, the swing, the bounce all got the better of the Capitals top-order in next to no time. Junior Dala, being given an opportunity today, made the most of it, hitting the right areas, getting enough purchase to get the job done, and ended with a 3-for to his name.

Kusal Mendis was looking good for a bit at the start, picking up from where he left off yesterday, but his innings was short lived. Salt, his opening partner picked out the man at deep square earlier and fumed on his way back. Rilee Rossouw swung and missed on several occasions against Topley, managed to middle a few after a brief while, got all his 18 runs in boundaries before departing, and with him, the Capitals' hopes of producing a miracle left as well.

The rest of the batting line-up all left with single-digit scores to their names. Eathan Bosch delayed the inevitable by a bit, denting the Durban Super Giants Net Run Rate a fair bit, before being caught by Klaasen after two reprieves. The game was over an over later, when Dupavillon sliced one to Willey at third man, and DSG completed a thumping victory. Presentations coming up shortly....

That's the end of that! A 151-run win for the Durban Super Giants, and their semi-finals hopes are still alive! They are level with the Paarl Royals with 19 points! Paarl Royals will need to be defeated by the Pretoria Capitals by either 60 runs or 30 balls for the Durban Super Giants to sneak through!

13.5 Keemo Paul to Daryn Dupavillon, OUT! END OF THE MISERY FOR THE CAPITALS! Short of a length outside off-stump, Dupavillon cuts and the ball flies straight to the third man, who takes it comfortably. The Super Giants produced a sumptuous performance to win by a humongous margin of 151 runs. They stay at the same spot in the points table though with 19 points and with a net run rate of -0.32

13.4 Keemo Paul to Daryn Dupavillon, another quick back of a length delivery, Dupavillon can't beat short extra cover

13.3 Keemo Paul to Daryn Dupavillon, back of a length angling in, Dupavillon gives room and pushes it to short extra cover

13.2 Keemo Paul to Daryn Dupavillon, short of a length outside off-stump, Dupavillon cuts and misses

13.1 Keemo Paul to Daryn Dupavillon, FOUR! Short outside off-stump, Dupavillon cuts and gets an outside edge. The flies to the third man fence

Keemo Paul, right-arm fast-medium, comes into the attack

Just the other day, the Capitals batting line-up never seemed to end as they looked to chase 160-odd. While they were successful in ending MI Cape Town's campaign yesterday, they failed to do the same to the Durban Super Giants today, and how!

12.6 Wiaan Mulder to Joshua Little, dug it short, Little attempts a upper cut but didn't make any contact

12.6 Wiaan Mulder to Joshua Little, WIDE! Good length going down the leg-side

Joshua Little, RHB, comes to the crease

12.5 Wiaan Mulder to Eathan Bosch, OUT! This time there is no escaping for Bosch. Hits the deck hard and the ball bounced extra to induce a false shot. Bosch swings and gets a top-edge. Klaasen gobbles it up with ease

Eathan Bosch c Heinrich Klaasen b Wiaan Mulder 23 (13b 1x4 2x6)

12.4 Wiaan Mulder to Eathan Bosch, ANOTHER ONE PUT DOWN! But this is not straightforward though. Pitched up on off-stump, Bosch swings but gets a top edge. Klaasen tracks back, twists and turns. He eventually dives to his right but can't get hold of it
