That's it from our coverage of this game. Do join us tomorrow for more cricketing actions across the globe and across formats in our network. For now, this is Ayan Chatterjee signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Saptak Sanyal alongside scorer/analyst Paras Yadav. Stay safe, happy, and cool. Goodnight and CHEERS!
Reeza Hendricks (Player of the Match)- "It was a challenging start. The wicket was a bit slow and they bowled well. But ya, I got going and got the support from Moeen. I thought something over 150 would be par but as the game progressed, we realised we have to score more. Somethings didn't go according to our plan. Hopefully we will do better in the next games."
Player of the Match- Reeza Hendricks
Jos Buttler (Paarl Royals Captain): "Yes, absolutely. Fantastic win and great chase. Gives confidence to the dressing room out there. The wicket played quite tricky out there. People played well in the last 10 overs. The last 10 overs were great. Brilliant partnership between Wihan and Dane Vilas and Vilas running between the wickets. I think clarity with the ball is helping us. Bond has been great with the boys. The clarity and thought is important and we are doing well. I am happy to be in this position and be rather in this position than losing games. We don't think about peaking too early or late. It's all about doing the basics right. Glad we are doing that as we go along. Happy with the win. Thank You."
Faf du Plessis (Joburg Super Kings Captain)- "I think batting first we posted a par score. As the game progressed, the ball skidded on to the bat making things good for the batting. We got better after the middle overs. I think the tricky part of this conditions is dividing the two halves. In the first half, they were bowling well. Lungi got some good slowers and executed them well. We saw Reeza struggled to time the ball well initially and he got back to his rhythm in the end in the last 2-3 overs. The wicket got better for batting in the later stages.
We are putting up good fights and doing the small things better. We have to stop dropping catches and reducing the extra runs, like restricting threes to twos is going to be the key for us.Yes, we are doing better and hopefully we will do better in the next game."

But it was Wihan Lubbe who held the innings together with his 57 off 48 balls and was ably supported by Dane Vilas who scored 42 off 26 balls. Vilas got run out in the end.

19.1 L Williams to F Allen
6nb Allen finishes off in style!!!!! Williams errs in length and serves a full length delivery at the tad outside off line. Allen shuffles a tad and lofts it over wide long-off and gets the required timing. The ball sails over the fence and it's a maximum. Umpire signals it as a no ball for overstepping and Paarl Royals gets their 5th victory of the season!

Andile Phehlukwayo comes out to the middle.
This looks OUT. TV umpire has been called in to check for the run out at the keeper's end. Replays are in and the bat is short of the ground. OUT is the call and Vilas has to walk back to the hut. They will get the single and the run out will be counted.
18.6 N Burger to D Vilas
1W We have a run out here!!! Burger serves a yorker angling at the off stump line. Vilas somehow works it away towards the midwicket and collects a single. He decides to go back for the unnecessary second run. Burger collects the ball and throws it back at the keeper's end and Ferreira whips the bails off with Vilas short of his crease. So, with this, 5 runs remains for the final over to defend for JSK.
18.5 N Burger to D Vilas
0 Back of length slower delivery outside off from round the wicket. Vilas goes for a lap shot but misses it due to the change of pace.
Now, then. What's happening here? They are checking whether there is an obstruction by the batter Fabian Allen. Is it deliberate? No, it is not deliberate according to the TV umpire and so, the bye will remain.
