In reply, Pretoria Capitals finished at 195 for 8, with Will Smeed top-scoring with 52 off 36 balls (9x4s), while Will Jacks (39) and Keagen Lion-Cachet (34 not out off 18) also making useful contributions. Skipper Rashid Khan (2/25) and medium-pace all-rounder Corbin Bosch (2/40) picked up two wickets each for MI Cape Town.
