A blistering 66 runs from Sunrisers Eastern Cape all-rounder Marco Jansen saw his team to another nail-biting and remarkable two-wicket victory over MI Cape Town in their SA20 fixture at Newlands on Wednesday.
The tall right-hander belted three fours and seven sixes, including four maximums off MI Cape Town skipper Rashid Khan in the 16th over, to reach his score in just 28 deliveries.
Earlier, Ryan Rickelton and Grant Roelofsen shared an impressive 102 runs from just 69 balls alongside a late unbeaten 48 between Odean Smith and Delano Potgieter as the hosts reached 171-6. Jon-Jon Smuts was the first to go, expertly run out by West Indian pace bowler Jofra Archer, who collected the ball in his delivery follow-through, swivelled around, and hit the target with the total on 14.
