That concludes the first innings, with MI Cape Town setting a challenging target of 200 for their opponents. The opening partnership of MI Cape Town got off to a blazing start, taking on the Paarl Royals bowlers and sending them to all parts of the ground in the early stages. However, the Royals fought back in the middle overs, with their bowlers taking quick wickets and regaining control of the game. But a crucial cameo from George Linde reignited MI's innings, setting the stage for Dewald Brevis and Delano Potgieter, who launched a blistering attack at the end to propel their team to a formidable total. Will this score be enough for the MI bowlers, or will the Paarl Royals successfully chase down this target and secure a spot in the final? Let's find out what unfolds. Join us after a break.
