19.5Gregory to D Potgieterwd
Wide. Wide Lewis Gregory to Delano Potgieter. Half volley, wide down leg side backing away glancing, Play and Miss (Leg Side) for 1 run, fielded by de Kock. What a game of cricket at St George's Park as Paarl Royals sealed a thrilling 5-wicket win. It was a dream start for the Sunrisers, who found themselves firmly in the driver's seat after picking up the top four batters inside the first seven overs, pushing the Royals onto the back foot early. However, it was David Miller who turned the match on its head, showcasing his vast experience with a magnificent 71 off just 38 balls to guide his team home almost single-handedly. He was well supported by Keagan Lion-Cachet, who played a classy knock and fell just five runs short of a well-deserved half-century. David Miller is the Player of the Match for his excellent batting performance.
