Full commentary

In hindsight it's easy to say that van der Merwe's 34 run over was the over that did the difference, but it wasn't. It was those 92 runs in the last five overs that did the difference. It was stick cricket-esque, but the batting by Miller today was something else.

Titans were to slow to start the chase but Kuhn provided the acceleration required and threatened to take the game away from Dolphins. Shezi took his wicket and three wickets in the next over to signal the end of the chase. His ball to Morkel will be remembered for long time to come. It's indeed sad that Titans lost their last eight wickets for forty two runs

David Miller is the Man of the match.

Thanks for joining us today. Please do come back to join us for the final. Till then it's a good night from all of us here.
