9:15pm Sunrisers now move up to second in the points table while Super Giants slide to the bottom. That's all from us tonight. On behalf of Vairvan, Ekanth, goodbye and take care! Do join us for our coverage tomorrow.
9:10pm Time for the presentation.
Quinton de Kock: "At the toss, I actually did not know what I wanted to do. If i think back now, I would have changed my mind. Batting is a concern. We have had two blowouts in two successive games. We have to start thinking about it and talking about it. We need points desperately. Hopefully we go [to Wanderers] and rock up."
Roelof van der Merwe, player of the match: "Was very enjoyable. The vibe was unbelievable and the band brings a different vibe. Just hitting my areas and lucky it's one of those nights when everything goes your way. I still enjoy playing the team game. I'd like to do it for a few more years and see how it lasts. Fortunate to play in front of this crowd at Gqeberha."
Aiden Markram: "We struggled to package a full game till today. Conditions yesterday were tough. It was a bit of learning and couple of meetings this morning we discussed about combating it. When a guy gives you a good start in powerplay, it's easier. Confident squad at the moment, but we have to restart come Tuesday. It is a big game, they are a great side. It will be another wicket and we will have to reassess it. The Bull Dog showed it. His passion rubs off and he does not look his age and hopefully carries on for ten more years."
8:59pm Gqeberha is painted Orange! And the brass band has had its time. And so have the others who have thronged St George's Park tonight. It has been a dominating performance from Sunrisers tonight that gives them the bonus point. Rossington set it up with his blitz at the top. Van der Merwe once again reminded South Africa of the good old times with his passion and six-for. All in all, a clinical outing for the home side.
Lots to reflect upon for Super Giants. How could they have done better with the ball? Both pace and spin travelled for them. And then their batting crumbled on the face of a tall ask. Moreover, why did de Kock slide down the order and not push Mayers down if indeed such a move was needed. Impacts their NRR as well. It will be a night of introspection for them.
