14.3 to CA Ingram, short ball, picks out deep backward point! Pace off from Behrendorff again, and this time Ingram's attempt to generate power sends it into the hands of Smeed, who holds on while running around the rope. More respite for Capitals. 143/2

12.2 to Sediqullah Atal, swiped to short third, finally Capitals break the stand! Pace off from Neesham, a wobbly little round-the-wicket legcutter and Sediqullah tries to hit it into the Atlantic Ocean. Instead he's caught in the ring off a thick outside edge. 133/1
18.1 to C Esterhuizen, picks out deep midwicket! Looking to hit to the shorter boundary, but Esterhuizen falls. Pace-on slot-ball really, but he didn't get hold of it. Neesham grimaces, knows on another day that could have landed in the crowd. Fine innings from Esterhuizen, nevertheless. 187/3
18.4 to D Potgieter, skied into the deep, another for Neesham! Scrambled seam, Potgieter swings to leg but sends the ball spiralling out towards deep backward point for a straightforward catch. Decent cameo from him, but Capitals are fighting hard at the death. 188/4

19.2 to CG Benjamin, bowled him through his legs! Peters aims for the stumps and hits, with Benjamin looking to do something fancy. Jumps round and turns the bat face for the reverse-ramp, but completely fails to connect. Hits the base of middle. Zing bails go pop. 192/5

0.1 to WG Jacks, round the wicket, angled across... and nicked behind first ball! Jacks heaves at a big shot down the ground and Benjamin holds on after a nervy juggle! Perfect start to the MICT defence. Looks like some sort of carrom ball from Piedt, going away from the right-hander rather than spinning back like a traditional offie. 0/1
12.1 to JDS Neesham, superbly held on the deep midwicket rope! Neesham crunches a slog-sweep into the Cape Town sky, but Potts is under it, takes the ball one-handed over his head and then lobs it back up as he steps over the rope before calmly completing the catch. Third of the night for Piedt, and a thumping defeat looms for Capitals. 95/8

8.2 to K Lion-Cachet, picks out deep backard square leg! Lion-Cachet leans on his bat and shakes his head. Tossed up and he goes for the big shot, top-edged and taken by the man running in off the rope. Capitals sink further. 59/6
13.3 to M Boast, dragged out and stumped! Kaber gets another as Boast's happy-slap outing comes to an end. Lunges out to swing the bat but then can't get the back foot over the line as Benjamin whips off the bails. 105/9
13.6 to JP Behrendorff, top-edged and taken! MICT win by 95 runs! Behrendorff finally runs up the white flag for Pretoria Capitals, hoicking across the line to be caught at backward point. Linde plunges forward to hold on, and that's yer lot. 106/10

11.1 to S Muthusamy, dragged down... and slapped to deep midwicket! Brevis is cock-a-hoop as he strikes with his first ball. Muthusamy hauled the ball into the leg side but picks out the fielder. Capitals making an undignified exit from the competition here. 88/7
