Nortje to Van Buuren, FOUR, oh that's actually a sensational shot. It was a good yorker, but he opened the face of the bat, threading the needle through the gap at point on the offside. Very measured chase from Paarl Royals, who never quite let the target get out of control
Everyone's in now. Will he go over the top?

Nortje to Miller, FOUR, squeezed behind short fine, and it's four more. That should be the game. Full and straight, but the inside edge was fine enough to seal the Capitals' fate

Nortje to Miller, FOUR, Nortje bowls a slot ball which Miller absolutely nails over exra cover for four. It was a half-volley which lit up Miller's eyes, and he dispatched it to the boundary. Unfortunately for him, he chooses the worst possible time to bowl the most hittable delivery of his spell
Anrich Nortje will bowl the final over
