That's it from our end for the coverage of the 1st semifinal of the CSA T20 Challenge. Ninaad Dixit here, signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Anirudh Modi and Ajay Ahire. Stay tuned for more coverage from cricket across the globe. Stay safe and take care.
Theunis de Bruyn, Titans skipper and the captain of the match: "Fantastic performance. The bowling unit was fantastic. Hopefully one more good performance from them. The toss went our way and then the guys executed and didn't bowl any poor balls in the powerplay. Picked up important wickets so yeah very good performance. We will work on the same process, will practice tomorrow and hopefully put up one more good performance."
Tabraiz Shamsi, Bowler of the match: "Yeah like I mentioned Earlier Pacers has made my job easy. All of us were clinical with the ball today in the penultimate semi-final. Really looking forward to the final. Hopefully, I will do my best in the finals, if not me others will be there with the ball for the team. Not overconfident going into the final but will look to play it as a normal game."
Dewald Brevis, Batter of the match: "Firstly its been wonderful getting into the team setup. The guys have been nice and I've always wanted to do better for me and my team. I can't wait for the final, its very exciting and can't wait to get out there."
Time for the post match presentation.
Excellent all round display from the Titans to get into the finals of the CSA T20 Challenge! After restricting the Dolphins for a paltry 93-8 in the first innings on the back of an exuberant bowling performance led by hat trick hero Tabraiz Shamsi (3-15 in four overs with a maiden).
The chase didn't start on a great note for the Titans as they lost their key batter Quinton de Kock in the very first over and his opening partner Theunis de Bruyn soon after in the third over. Number three Dewald Brevis (38 off 30) then led the charge and added 39 runs for the third wicket with Heinrich Klaasen and departed in the thirteenth over when the Titans were just fifteen runs short of the total.
Sibonelo Makhanya, after getting a reprieve when he was dropped at covers by Khaya Zondo, then finished the game off as he scored 18 off 11 deliveries and hit a fours and a six each. Kerwin Mungroo was the pick of the bowlers for the Dolphins and finished with figures of 3-21. Eathan Bosch chipped in with Klaasen's dismissal.
It's the end of the road for the Dolphins after a mixed effort in the league stage where they lost three games and won four to get to 17 points which made them qualify for the semi finals. On the other hand, this is Titans' seventh win in eight games and they will move to the mega finals with lots of confidence on their hand.
Stay tuned for the presentation ceremony.
14.1 A Phehlukwayo to S Makhanya
1 That's it that's a single from Makhanya which will take the Titans into the final. Good length from Phehlukwayo on the middle and leg. Makhanya gets the inside edge as he goes for the slog and it hits the thigh pad and rolls away on the off-side for a single. This has been a perfect outing for the Titans in this semi-final number 1. They were clinical in all three departments.
