Only one of last season’s scheduled matches between these two teams was possible last season. Cape Town Blitz won that game as Janneman Malan hit 57 in a total of 175/6 and Dale Steyn’s 2-21 in reply proved vital in an innings reduced to 16 overs.

The Giants’ 132/6 – led by Heino Kuhn’s 55 – was 12 runs behind the DLS method target.
