We took the chances, very happy the way Smeed batted. Specially it was a outclass bowling from the bowlers. Team have a hunger within them and I'm proud of it"

12:27 AM IST, 8:57 PM Local Time: Sensational victory from the Buffaloes as they chased down the target within seven overs
Earlier in the day, having lost the toss Buffaloes had to bowl first. And they enjoyed it thoroughly. Courtesy of Hafeez, Noor Ahmed, and Muzarabani. They all picked up two wickets each to dismantle the Hurricanes' batting line-up. Hurricanes managed to post 81 runs on the board, making the record for the lowest first innings score in Zim Afro T10 so far. Nabi fuelled some oxygen to get them to cross the 50-run mark at one point. It looked like the batters failed to hold onto the momentum.
While chasing the score, Hafeez and Banton looked to finish things off quickly. But Sreesanth got better off Hafeez. But that was the only positive thing about Hurricanes. Post that, it was a party all over from Banton and Smeed. They looked to launch big shots all over the ground. Their firecrackers made Joburg chase the total in no time. As a result, they finished second on the points table. They will face Durban Qalandars in the first qualifier.
6.2 S Patel to T Banton
4 Boundary as the winning shot!! Length ball, outside off. Banton tried to cut it but got thick outside edge that beat the keeper and went towards the fence for a boundary. Joburg Buffaloes won by 9 wickets.
