Faf du Plessis, who is currently playing for the Johannesburg Super Kings in the SA20, made an incredible one-handed catch to dismiss Dewald Brevis. Interestingly, Lizaad Williams, 39, sprinted back from the 30-yard line and sprang with his right hand outstretched to make an incredible catch. The youthful player did not time Williams’ delivery.
After calling Faf du Plessis “an absolute screamer of a catch,” the pundits expressed their satisfaction with Faf du Plessis efforts. Brevis left after just five runs, but his teammates soon joined him in celebrating.
Hey @Betway_za, doesn’t that @faf1307 catch deserve a share of the #Betway Catch 2 Million? 🤔#SA20 #WelcomeToIncredible #JSKvMICT pic.twitter.com/bVSd7TbHUx

In the fourth game of the current SA20, MI Cape Town defeated Johannesburg handily; therefore, his brief visit had no effect. With a 200-run partnership that eliminated Johannesburg from the game, openers Rassie van der Dussen and Ryan Rickelton gave the squad the perfect start. Stump hitter Rickelton was out after 98 runs off 49 deliveries, missing his century by the narrowest of margins, while Dussen blasted 104 runs off just 50 deliveries.
In the current SA20 2024 League, MI Cape Town made history by scoring an enormous 243.
As five of the six bowlers for Johannesburg gave up more than ten runs per over, they appeared to be pretty mediocre bowlers. Cape Town amassed 243 runs in the SA20 2024 match thanks to the same, making it very difficult for the Faf du Plessis-led team to chase. They led 29-3 at one point, but Leus du Plooy appeared to want to get them back into the game. But when Johannesburg once again suffered a severe blow, the 29-year-old was out (48 runs off 24 deliveries).
Romario Shepherd had a strong final stretch of play, scoring 34 runs off of just 19 runs, but it was insufficient. Following Johannesburg’s bowling out for 145 runs, Cape Town won the game by 98 runs. Olly Stone and George Linde each claimed two wickets, while Beuran Hendricks, Kagiso Rabada, Liam Livingstone, and Sam Curran each claimed one.
With two wins and four points from two games, Cape Town jumped to the top of the table, while Johannesburg dropped to fifth place with just two points from two games.
