Overview
- MI Cape Town beat Joburg Super Kings by 36 runs at the Wanderers, piling up 234/3 as Ryan Rickelton finished 113 not out.
- Rassie van der Dussen’s 65 in a 129‑run opening stand set the platform before George Linde and Kagiso Rabada took two wickets each to limit JSK to 198/5.
- The defending champions have two wins from seven league matches, leaving three fixtures to push for a top‑four place.
- Rickelton became the first player with multiple SA20 centuries and tops this season’s run chart.
- Proteas chief selector Patrick Moroney said he expected scrutiny over Rickelton’s World Cup omission, and local reporting links the in‑form batter as a potential replacement if injured Tony de Zorzi is ruled out.
