That's it from this game but action comes thick and fast in SA20. MI Cape Town will face table-toppers Paarl Royals tomorrow and we'll look forward to your company again. For now, it's goodnight from me, Rvel Zahid, and everyone else at ESPNcricinfo.

Keshav Maharaj: It was good surface upfront, bowlers in the end gave us a good chance, we couldn't get going in that powerplay...simple plans paid dividends, they are a lot of positives that we can carry from this game in this competition. Maybe it's just about getting rustiness off, it's just about executing and the result will take care of itself, it's back to basics from the next game.

Wayne Parnell: We started really well probably lost a bit in the end with the bat, wicket was't as good as they made it look here..there was some variable bounce, after powerplay there was variable bounce, message is go out and just express yourself. Wouldn't say polish (performance), if we have the right plans, more often than not we will execute, if not on a particular day, I am not too fussed about it. Closing up a game is foremost but there are definitely areas to work on. There are some very talented guys in every team, so it's about keeping things simple, go ball by ball

Will Jacks, Player of the Match: It was a good day, good all round performance, lucky to get win. just have to try to keep it simple with bat and bowl, and not overhit the ball here. I really enjoyed bowling, (relied) on my strengths.

Brilliant last over from Neesham, he held his nerve and kept it simple. Will Jacks' thumping 100 remains the highlight of the day, surely the difference between the two sides. Super Giants needed a big knock from someone, but nobody could push on keep the asking rate in check. Excellent bowling from Jacks, Bosch who conceded 6 runs per over, A Rashid kept it tight too and stemmed the run-flow in the middle overs. Parnell was a bit expensive, but overall, it was a well-knit bowling performance. Capitals register their first win of this season and jump to the fifth spot. They could have easily got more than 200, but the middle-order succumbed meekly at the death. The response with the ball from Capitals was terrific as they broke the partnerships at vital moments and made sure they were a step ahead in clutch moments

19.6
1
Neesham to Maharaj, 1 run, Saw him backing to the leg side and followed him up, cramping him for room, a length ball, he nudged to long on and that's the end of that
19.5
1
Neesham to Pretorius, 1 run, Shortens his length, not much room to go big, forehands it down the ground and long-off cuts it off
19.4

Neesham to Pretorius, no run, Swing and a miss! Back of a length at an innocuous pace with little bit of nibble outside off, early through the swing and Neesham has brought all his experience to the fore
19.3
1
Neesham to Maharaj, 1 run, Smart bowling. Not giving him pace to work with. Short of a length on middle, rocks back and clonks the front foot out of the way, tugging it to deep midwicket
19.2
1
Neesham to Pretorius, 1 run, Pace off the ball, on a length and keeping it wicket to wicket, carved away aerially to sweeper who collects it on one bounce, 21 from four needed, slipping away quickly
19.1
1
Neesham to Maharaj, 1 run, Length ball just outside off, belts it down the ground but finds long-off and is livid with himself. 22 off 5

Neesham will bowl the last over!
