RSA Vs SL, 1st Test: Jansen's Seven-For Rips Through Sri LankaSunrisers had a tough start batting first as none of their top six batters, barring captain Aiden Markram (68), could cross single digits. However, Makram stitched two crucial partnerships, first with Marco Jansen (24) and then with Liam Dawson (25) to take his side to 149/6 in 20 overs.
Pacer Eathan Bosch picked up three wickets for the Capitals while Will Jacks dismissed two batters in a single over.
Chasing 150, the Capitals ran into a rampaging Marco Jansen who picked up three wickets in the powerplay. The Capitals could never recover from the horror start and kept losing wickets to ultimately get bowled out for 97. Thus, they lost by 52 runs.
