Asif Ali is the player of the match and do join us for the second game. Good night from all of us here.
Asif Ali swung the match in Cape Town Blitz's favour. He was severe on the bowlers. He was given two chances and he capitalised. Maharaj bowled well for Durban and unfortunately that wasn't enough
