SportzpicsJoburg Super Kings: 151/8 THE defending Champions, Sunrisers Eastern Cape, recorded a thrilling 14 runs victory over the Joburg Super Kings at St George’s Park in Gqeberha on Friday, extending their unbeaten streak to four matches and taking the second spot on the standings.
Despite Du Plessis and Devon Conway remaining resolute at the top of the order with a 35-run stand, there was no real resistance from the rest of the Super Kings batters as they were simply blown away by what is arguably the best bowling attack in the tournament.However, the visitors might have had hope when they needed 66 off the last six overs with Conway and the in-form Jonny Bairstow at the crease.
That will always be a daunting total for any visiting side against such a strong bowling attack in the conditions at St George’s Park. However, when the visitors reduced the defending champions to 38/1 in the first powerplay, they would have felt they recovered well, and after all, Crawley was dismissed an over later, trapped LBW by Hardus Viljoen .
