After winning their opener, the Super Giants were frustrated by the weather as their return clash against MI Cape Town was rained out with the Super Giants on 37/0 off four overs.

Devon Conway (24* off 13) and Kane Williamson again got their side off to a flier before the rains came down. The pair had added 96 for the first wicket in under nine overs in their opening win over MI Cape Town. The middle-order all showed their style, Jos Buttler scoring 20 off 12 balls, Heinrich Klaasen 22 off 14, Aiden Markram 35 off 17 and Evan Jones 33* off 14.

MI Cape Town put up a brave fight but couldn't contend with Eathan Bosch (4/46), who ran through three of the home side's top four. Noor Ahmad (0/38, econ 9.50) and David Wiese (1/39, econ 9.75) did their part in clinching a victory over the defending champions on their home turf.

The Super Kings picked up their first win at Supersport Park when they beat the Pretoria Capitals by 22 runs in their opening match of the SA20 season.

Duan Jansen secured career-best figures of 4/23 to demolish the Capitals, who collapsed to 146/9 after a 1st wicket stand of 71. The Capitals lost five wickets for 18 runs as Jansen ran through four of their top six batters (econ 5.75). Richard Gleeson weighed in with 2/33.

Super Kings skipper Faf du Plessis was delighted with his team’s performance in their opening match, highlighting Rilee Rossouw and Wiaan Mulder.

“It was a bit tricky and spicy with the new ball - just the maturity with their batting to hang in there and build a partnership. They're the reason we got a decent total. Probably felt we were about 15 light considering how they batted. But that partnership for me was key, and then we saw what the wicket was doing so the plans were pretty straightforward. How you adapt to the conditions is key, so really we got a fighting, hardworking, favourite kind of win," said Du Plessis after the match.

Durban's Super Giants (squad): Aiden Markram (c), Jos Buttler (w), Devon Conway (w), Heinrich Klaasen (w), Marques Ackerman, David Bedingham, Tony de Zorzi, Kane Williamson, Dayyan Galiem, Evan Jones, Sunil Narine, Andile Simelane, David Wiese, Eathan Bosch, Gerald Coetzee, Daryn Dupavillon, Kwena Maphaka, Noor Ahmad and Gysbert Wege.
