Pite van Biljon, 72 off 54 balls vs Dolphins
Pite van Biljon, 72 off 54 balls vs Dolphins Robbie Frylinck starred with bat and ball as the Hollywoodbets Dolphins made it two from two with a comfortable four-wicket victory over the VKB Knights on day two of the Betway T20 Challenge at Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium in Durban on Saturday. The veteran all-rounder first excelled with the ball by claiming two for 11 that helped his team restrict their opponents to 144 for five in their 20 overs. Frylinck then struck an important 24 off 15 balls following a nervy period for the local side, which ultimately ensured they got to their target with 11 deliveries to spare. It was a result that propelled the coastal side to the top of the table, with the Central Franchise remaining winless after two games so far. After winning the toss and batting, the Knights were in trouble from the get-go, losing their first four wickets inside the opening 6.3 overs. Captain Keshav Maharaj (2/18), fresh from claiming a career-best four-for on day one of the competition, struck twice in the first three deliveries of the game to dismiss Patrick Kruger and Andries Gous both for ducks, with Frylinck then taking out Jacques Snyman (6) and Farhaan Behardien (5). That made for a dreadful start for Allan Donald's charges, but they only improved from there thanks to their own skipper Pite van Biljon as he recorded his seventh career half-century on his way to an unbeaten 72 off 54 balls (3 fours, 4 sixes). He first added 48 with Ferisco Adams (18), before a franchise record 75-run sixth wicket unbroken stand saw the Knights set 145. The Dolphins' reply went well initially – Sarel Erwee (17) and Grant Roelofsen (21) putting on 35 for the opening wicket. Adams (2/26) did manage to break through in the sixth over by enticing an edge from the former, while Senuran Muthusamy (8) and the latter followed in quick succession. But Khaya Zondo, who scored a half-century in the Dolphins' win over the Six Gun Grill Cape Cobras on Saturday, hit an unbeaten 35, and together with David Miller (29), settled nerves. Alfred Mothoa (2/37) gave the Knights hope by removing Miller and Mangaliso Mosehle (1), but Frylinck and Zondo put on 55 for the sixth wicket to take their side to a solid win.

Rassie van der Dussen, 64 off 41 balls vs Warriors
Rassie van der Dussen, 64 off 41 balls vs Warriors A sizzling half-century in the Durban heat from Rassie van der Dussen together with seven shared wickets between Kagiso Rabada and Sisanda Magala helped the Imperial Lions make a strong start to the Betway T20 Challenge with a four-wicket win over the Dafabet Warriors on Saturday. Wandile Gwavu's team, champions of the competition when it was last played, bowled first after losing the toss but managed to dismiss their opponents for 157 at Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium. Seamer Magala was their most successful bowler with four for 37, but Proteas speedster Rabada was the man that impressed most with his three for 23. National team-mate Van der Dussen then blasted 64 off 41 balls (3 fours, 4 sixes) to lead the Lions' charge that ended with them crossing the line with four deliveries to spare. The margin of victory could have been even greater for the Johannesburg-based side had they not went through a wobble late during the chase. They were in control for most of the contest, though, especially after pulling the Warriors back following a fast start provided by Jon-Jon Smuts (14) and Gihahn Cloete (18). But from 34 for none after four overs, Rabada's pace then rattled the Eastern Cape side as they lost quick wickets to slump to 36 for three. Wihan Lubbe (22), who was rattled by a bouncer from the paceman that struck his head, and captain Sinethemba Qeshile (33) did lead the recovery – the Warriors reaching 107 for four at one stage. But they fell to the excellent Bjorn Fortuin (1/18) and Beuran Hendricks (1/29) respectively, before Magala returned to mop up the tail, the innings ending with the 10th wicket falling from the final delivery. The Lions lost Ryan Rickelton (5) and Reeza Hendricks (11) early, before Temba Bavuma (40) and Van der Dussen rebuilt with a 64-run second-wicket stand. The latter and Delano Potgieter (17) followed that by adding 58 for the next wicket to put the chase well on track. However, the two set men fell to Aya Gqamane (3/20) to threaten a late twist, but Fortuin struck nine quick runs to ensure there was no Warriors comeback as Gwavu's men sealed victory early in the final over.

Tabraiz Shamsi, three for 20 vs VKB Knights
Tabraiz Shamsi, three for 20 vs VKB Knights The Momentum Multiply Titans opened their Betway T20 Challenge campaign with a convincing six-wicket win against the VKB Knights at Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium in Durban. Tabraiz Shamsi led a dynamic all-round bowling performance before Heinrich Klaasen composed nerves with an unbeaten half-century to fire the Momentum Multiply Titans to a six-wicket victory over the VKB Knights in the Betway T20 Challenge opener in Durban on Friday. On a sweltering morning at Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium – where the 2020/21 tournament is being hosted in a bio-secure environment – the Central Franchise won the toss and opted to bat first, only to be steamrolled for 116 inside 17 overs. Spinner Shamsi was the most successful of the bowlers with three for 20 in his four overs, but the IPL’s multi-million rand man Chris Morris showed his worth by claiming one for 10 in 3.2 overs. There were also two wickets apiece for Lungi Ngidi (2/19), Lizaad Wiliams (2/20) and Dayyaan Galiem (2/25) in what was a fine display with the ball by the Titans. Migael Pretorius (3/26) then rocked the top order of the Centurion-based side to leave them on seven for three, before captain Klaasen belted 54* off 40 balls (3 sixes, 3 fours) to lead his side home with 17 deliveries to spare. It was a strong start from Mandla Mashimbyi’s side and just reward for what was a strong showing with the ball. However, the Knights only have themselves to blame after they flew out of the blocks to reach 84 for two in the ninth over thanks to Andries Gous (35) and Pite van Biljon (33). Patrick Kruger also struck 22 earlier. But it all went horribly wrong from there as they lost their remaining eight wickets for just 32 runs to be dismissed in 16.2 overs. Pretorius then threatened to alter a relatively straightforward-looking script with his double strike up front, his wickets including Theunis de Bruyn (0), Aiden Markram (5) and Sibonelo Makhanya (0). But Dean Elgar hit an assured 37 during a stand of 76 with Klaasen, who then finished the job alongside Morris (21*).
