5.05pm: Bjorn Fortuin at the top of the order, Evan Jones at the finish. Paarl Royals kept taking wickets and in the end there was too much for Heinrich Klaasen to do to win this one for Durban's Superest Giants. A slightly above-par total from Royals was ultimately enough, as they picked up their second win of the competition. Bjorn Fortuin is Player of the Match: "[New ball] Presents wicket-taking opportunities so got to make the most of it. Nice to perform in front of [my] home crowd. Whoever's in front of me it's my job to restrict them. There are challenges as a bowler, but try to take advantage of the conditions." Anyway, there's another game about to start in Joburg, so head over and join Shashwat for that. From myself and Ekanth, it's cheerio for now!

Jones to Subrayen, 1 run, full and straight and hacked for one through backward square leg. Royals win by 10 runs!

Jones to Subrayen, no run, gets the yorker in, maybe a touch full but it dips under the bat and hits the back leg. Jones goes up for lbw, but will take the dot
Two sixes will do it for DSG...

Jones to Subrayen, 1 wide, dug in short, Subrayen swings and misses. But it's called wide on height!

1lb
Jones to Klaasen, 1 leg bye, full toss, into the pads as Klaasen attempts a mighty blow into the leg side... deflects square for one, and that might be that as far as Royals are concerned

Jones to Klaasen, 2 runs, full on off, dragged through backward square leg, but it's only going to fetch him a couple

Jones to Klaasen, 2 runs, steps to leg, Jones follows him with a full ball, chipped for a couple in front of long-off as the man runs in
Klaasen steps up to the plate
