3.20pm Just the kind of performance Spartans needed to ensure they're in the hunt for a semi-final spot. Just 121 runs to win, and if they can do it a rapid manner, then they'll even collect bonus points! We'll have the bonus-point equation for you in a moment. Be back soon for the Spartans chase.

Sipamla: "Tried to be as simple as possible. I think the leadership group of AB and co are helping me a lot. Definitely looking at a bonus-point win. Thank you to the fans."

Chris Taunton: "Why don't automatic updates work on these SA matches? Is it a glitch or simply that you're not classing these matches as important?" -- Hi, you need to 'favourite' the team whose score you want. You should get your updates thereafter! Go to your app settings.

Mendis to Shamsi, 1 run, full on of, and the wrong'un has been drilled to long on

Here's Shamsi. He'll be excited to see a spinning pitch for later, but for now... he needs to ensure Rocks bat all 20 overs

Mendis to Moreki, OUT, inside-edged to the keeper! The googly earns Mendis the wicket. Full outside off, and the tailender goes for an expansive drive. The ball spins inwards, takes the inside-half of the bat, and deposits itself near the keeper's groin. He composes himself, collects the ball from between his legs, and completes the catch to send Paarl nine down

Sipamla to Moreki, no run, yes he can! Figures of 3-19 for the youngster. Length ball that forces Moreki to go onto the back foot, which he defends rather easily

Just two off the over so far. Can Simapla finish his spell well?
