Stay tuned for the presentation...
Warriors put up a really good fight but they could not get away with a win in the end. They started off really well by picking up two wickets in the first two overs. But then, Warriors lost their track in the field, they leaked some extra runs and dropped a few chances. Later they picked up two wickets in quick succession but failed to apply the same pressure throughout. The bowlers came to life in the death and picked up wickets in cluster. Although the Rocks' had enough depth with the blade to take the game away from Warriors.
Rocks came back strongly! It was not the perfect of starts for the Rocks, as they lost the Malan brothers inside the first two overs. It looked like Rocks will be put under pressure but the third wicket partnership between Clyde Fortuin and Ferisco Adams made sure to make up for the two quick wickets by some brisk scoring. The pair took the side to safer shores but both slipped out in quick succession. Later, a stand between Jonker and Copeland took them closer to the finish line. In the end, the lower order applied the finishing touches to get their side over the line.
A complete team effort by Rocks makes sure they got over the line eventually after losing wickets in cluster in the death overs. Hardus Viljoen and Shaun von Berg kept their cool in the final over to get their side over the line. Warriors would be disappointed with their effort with the ball. They gave it their all till the final over but could not make it count.

Tiaan van Vuuren To Hardus Viljoen
FOUR! Absolute drama in the middle! A full ball, outside off. Hardus Viljoen drills it wide of the deep cover fielder. He pushes hard for the second run but the fielder in the deep makes a mess of it as he half-stops the ball in first place then he looks to push it back in play by sliding just in front of the ropes. He doesn't realize that the ball had already touched the ropes before he had collected and thrown it back to the bowler. The umpire has a check and the replays suggest that it is a boundary.
