Full commentary

8.30pm And the rain has got heavier enough for the umpires to call it off. Handshakes all around with the Spartans clearly in the driving seat. But the teams share two points each. Both these teams have their three out of four games washed out so far.

2.1
W
Morkel to Vilas, OUT

and he strikes straightaway. Fuller around off, Vilas moves across and looks to paddle it fine. Misses and the off stump is out of its groove

Dane Vilas b Morkel 14 (6b 0x4 2x6 9m) SR: 233.33

Morne Morkel

end of over 219 runs

A light drizzle out there but we will continue

1.6
4
Tom Curran to Hales, FOUR runs

fuller on the stumps and smashes straight over the bowler's head

1.5
Tom Curran to Hales, no run

full and wide outside off, Hales reaches out for it. Did he get some bat on it? Klaasen thinks so and is celebrating a caught-behind. The umpire doesn't think so

1.4
2
Tom Curran to Hales, 2 runs

in the blockhole. Digs it out towards deep midwicket

1.3
1
Tom Curran to Vilas, 1 run
1.2
6
Tom Curran to Vilas, SIX runs

back-to-back sixes for Vilas. Moves across, goes down on one knee and slaps it over deep square leg once more

1.1
6
Tom Curran to Vilas, SIX runs

short of length at the batsman. Vilas transfers his weight bat and pulls it over deep square leg. First six of the innings

64 needed from 24 balls. The first two overs are the powerplay overs. Here is Tom Curran

end of over 12 runs • 2 wickets

Lungi Ngidi 1-0-2-2
0.6
Ngidi to Hales, no run

backing away too much and Ngidi just bowls a length ball outside off. Vilas cannot reach there

0.5
1
Ngidi to Vilas, 1 run

length ball around off, flicks it towards deep midwicket. Was looking for the second but will have to settle for only one

0.4
Ngidi to Vilas, no run

length outside off, goes for the cut but ends up under-edging it towards the keeper

0.3
1
Ngidi to Hales, 1 run

short of length outside off, guides it towards third man. No hat-trick here

Hat-trick ball.

0.2
W
Ngidi to Lubbe, OUT

and that's two in two. Ngidi is on a hat-trick. Short of length outside off, Lubbe pulls it fine but ends up hitting straight to de Villiers at deep midwicket

Wihan Lubbe c de Villiers b Ngidi 0 (1b 0x4 0x6 1m) SR: 0

Around the wicket

0.1
W
Ngidi to Marshall, OUT

and a wicket first ball. You cannot ask for a better start. Was a short of length around off, Marshall went for the pull only to sky it up straight and Ngidi settles under it and pouches it easily

Wesley Marshall c & b Ngidi 0 (1b 0x4 0x6 1m) SR: 0

8.16pm Alex Hales and Wesley Marshall are out to chase 66 in five overs. Ngidi has the ball.
