DaWolf: "Superb cameo. But will the slowness of those first 6 overs prove too costly in the end?" -- To be fair to MICT, they were playing as if it was a 20-over innings, and were building a foundation on what had proven a tricky pitch up until that point.

9:15pm Wow, what an end to the innings. Pollard clearly the star of the show, smashing 33 off 10 and taking MI Cape Town to 80. Wiese, in particular, came for some rough treatment in the last over. The 37 runs that MI Cape Town have scored since the resumption could well prove to be the difference in an hour's time.

JSK will feel they gave away ten runs too many. They now have to chase 98 in eight overs, which is not easy by any stretch, especially against the quality of bowlers MICT have. However, the Super Kings will have all their wickets in hand and can tee off from the outset. Can they ace this chase and get just their second win this season? Join us in a bit to find out!

Wiese to Pollard, SIX, six to finish the innings! Attempted bumper but this sits up nicely for Pollard on off stump. He gets inside the line and smears it over long leg!

Wiese to Pollard, SIX, six more! Goes for the double-bluff and tries the wide yorker. Ends up bowling it in the slot, though. Pollard gets his hands through the line and carves it over extra cover!

Wiese to Pollard, 2 runs, short on leg stump. Pollard gets inside the line and helps it off the toe-end past short fine leg, who misfields and ensures that the second run is completed at a canter
