Despite facing a double blow from MI’s George Linde, DSG managed to achieve a commendable powerplay score of 52/2.
Initially, disciplined bowling from MI unsettled the DSG batters, but Sam Curran’s impressive 52 off six overs provided some relief.
JJ Smuts showcased promise with the bat, aiming to set the stage for DSG to achieve a substantial total. Unfortunately, Smuts’ innings came to an abrupt halt due to a remarkable catch by Brevis.
Thomas Kaber’s flighted delivery down the leg deceived Smuts into attempting a slog sweep, falling short of the required distance. Initially appearing to misjudge the catch, Brevis adjusted by moving forward, executing a full-length dive with both hands, ultimately trapping the ball in his right hand.
