Texas Super Kings put up a decent total, thanks to the mammoth 132-run stand between du Plessis and Ranjane. Both were on song and inflicted plenty of damage. Fortuin and Harmeet managed to stem the flow while the others were hit for plenty. The heavy lifting subsided a bit at the death but credit to the Orcas; they used slower balls, mixed up the pace and brought the cutters into play to good effect toward the end. The chase is coming up soon, stay tuned!
CoachSanjay: "Ranjane has an average of 88.50 for the season and has 250 runs insane consistency throughout the middle overs!"
Arnesh: "Really selfless from Faf to retire in the 90s but definitely the right decision considering Ferreira's form"

1lb
Mayers to Ranjane, 1 leg bye, appeal for an lbw, turned down, slower length ball into the stumps and ricochets off the pads to third man. Mayers want another opinion. Nothing on the bat, flat line on the ultra edge. impact is outside the line of off-stump so that's that
