Super Giants have their tasks cut out. Back shortly for the run chase.

Adam Rossington: "We knew that powerplay was going to be crucial. It skidded more today than yesterday. With the rain around, I think we have enough. Thrilled to be part of SA20. They've got some dangerous players. We have got to win the powerplay and go from there."

7:37pm Sixty runs off the last five overs, Sunrisers have had a perfect finish, despite the rain break. If it was Rossington who provided the fireworks at the start, with a 30-ball blitz for 72, it was the young-gun Stubbs, who made 27 off just 13, that helped Sunrisers rocket past the 200 mark. It was not meant to be a quick, run-scoring track but Sunrisers have done exactly the opposite.

Holder to Stubbs, SIX, Audacious! Improvisation at its best. Holder goes short around leg. Stubbs quickly turns the bat in his hands, jumps and whacks it over short third. It goes the distance.

Mulder to Markram, FOUR, Clever, clever shot. Markram was still till the point Mulder let it off his hands. And then, he quickly hops to play the cheeky reverse scoop well past short third to the low full toss outside off.

Mulder to Stubbs, SIX, Fetch that! Where is the ball gone? Into orbit. "New ball please," screams Pommie Mbangwa on air. Gets a length ball outside off, Stubbs always is in position, having moved across to off. He just extends his arms and smashes it welll over long-on.

Holder to Markram, no run, Short and angling across off, Markram gets inside the line and looks to play the hook. Seems to have missed it but Holder appeals, QdK joins belatedly. They opt for the DRS. Flat line on Snicko, Super Giants lose a review.

7:20pm The players are in the middle. Pretorius to Markram.

7:15pm The rain has stopped and we should resume shortly. No loss of overs.

7:05pm Not much of an update. The covers are still firmly in place. The wait continues...

6:49pm And now they go off! The rain was getting heavier, the on-air comms were surprised to see play being on all this while. And now the covers are called on and the strip is firmly under covers.

Pretorius to Hermann, OUT, Two-in-two! Excellently-judged by Holder at long-on and that's the end of Hermann! Pretorius bowls it full and outside leg, Hermann once again backs away to hit it straight over. But ends up getting more height than distance. Holder has his eyes on it and takes it, but seems to be losing his balance and throws it back to Klaasen at long-off . The TV ump has a couple of looks and is convinced.

Pretorius to Hermann, no run, Full and outside leg, he backs away and looks to smash it but misses. Was there an edge? QdK spilled it...

Uh oh... It's started to drizzle... The ground-staff now rush to get the covers on as the players make their way off it. Rain's gotten heavier. We are set to continue for now!
