Sam CookJoburg Super Kings

The home crowd are on their feat because the home side Joburg Super Kings need only 139 to win. Four wickets for Cook, who played today only because Lizaad Williams was injured. Three for Burger, two for Tahir and one for Moeen. Don't forget those two catches from Tahir either. Miller's 47 the only bright spot for the Royals with the bat. Be back soon with the chase.

Aditya Murugesh: "There's a pretty famous saying in the cricket world, 'Never let the Super Kings into the playoffs, cuz they'll absolutely steamroll through the opposition!' "

SK: "Paarl ROYALLY COOKed :D"

Cook to Codi Yusuf, OUT, that's his fourth one! What a replacement Sam Cook has been today. Length ball on off stump. Zipping through with Yusuf missing his cut. Off stump gone! Paarl Royals are all out for 138

Mohd Irshad: "What a story it would be, from no one giving them any chance, living at the bottom for most of the part... hardly winning anything and then suddenly You become the SA20 champions." -- lots of cricket left in this tournament
