Commentator: Srinidhi

That's it from us today. Hope you all enjoyed our coverage. I am signing off on behalf of my entire team. Thank you and good night!

10.09pm: Uff, what a low-scoring thriller we had today! What looked like an easy chase for Giants was made difficult by Capitals spinners Raza and van der Merwe, who shared five wickets between them to trigger a collapse. But Cox stayed till the end to take the team past 132. Raza's 47 with the bat also went in vain for Capitals, who endured an early collapse. With this result, Giants move from fifth to occupy third spot. Capitals remain second on the points table.

Alex: "Raza has been brilliant with bat and ball - looks a great signing for Northamptonshire in the Blast."
