Durban's Super Giants back to winning ways against MI Cape Town

The result saw the Giants reclaim their place in second position on the standings with 18 points and left their opponents in fourth with nine points.

The visitors were inserted and struggled initially after MI Cape Town's left-arm spinner George Linde (2/15) reduced DSG to 23/2 in the third over.

Linde's victims were DSG debutant Tony de Zorzi, who raced to 20 off 11 balls (3x4, 1x6), attempting an ill-judged reverse sweep before also clean bowling Quinton de Kock the very next ball.

DSG's innings was then rebuilt through a 43-run partnership between Matthew Breetzke (48) and Jon-Jon Smuts (26).

But a double blow by MI Cape Town wrist-spinner Thomas Kaber (2/20), who also accounted for the dangerous Heinrich Klaasen to stem the visitors' momentum.

They required a 20-ball 38 not out from Wiaan Mulder to eventually lift DSG to 157/6.

Tuesday's star performers included Matthew Breetzke, George Linde, Noor Ahmad and Marcus Stoinis.

MICT were never in control of their run chase as they lost wickets at regular intervals.

There was a lack of partnerships throughout with only Sam Curran (38) and Dewald Brevis' (21) 48-run stand for the fourth wicket providing any hope for the Newlands faithful.

It was DSG's two new signings Noor Ahmad (3/22) and Marcus Stoinis (3/18) that inflicted the damage as MICT were restricted to 121/9.
