that will be that! Full delivery angled into leg stump. Salt has a flick at it and gets an inside edge that then deflects off the pads into the leg side for a single. A slightly anti-climactic end but the Capitals will not mind it one bit!
Super Kings vs Capitals, 13th Match at Centurion, SA20, Jan 18 2023 - Match Result
Capitals won by 6 wickets (with 42 balls remaining)
8:22pm Right. That was in stark contrast to how the game between these two teams panned out yesterday. After four successive thrillers, though, such a contest was perhaps on the cards anyway. Tomorrow, the Paarl Royals will be back in action, and they will be taking on the Sunrisers Eastern Cape, fresh off a remarkable victory against MI Cape Town. Do join us for that match but until then, this is me (Shashwat) signing off on behalf of Binoy George and everyone at ESPNcricinfo. Goodbye, goodnight and take care!
8:20pm A very comfortable victory for the Capitals in the end. They did not have a mountain to scale in the second innings, and they flexed their batting muscles very early, with Jacks setting the tone. Rossouw also continued in a similar vein, with Salt ensuring that there were no further hiccups. The Super Kings looked out of sorts in both departments and after the high of yesterday's win, they have come crashing back down to earth and have plenty to ponder moving ahead.

Neesham comes out to bat. Can he finish it with one blow?
holes out to deep point! Short, wide and that deserved to be punished. Instead, Dadswell swings too hard at it and ends up slicing it straight down deep point's throat. That might have been a change-up too, and the way Dadswell played it, he might not have picked it up. Nevertheless, a consolatory wicket for the Super Kings!
