Rudi Second after scoring 32 runs for his team lost his wicket and went back to the pavilion. Tumelo Bodibe too followed his team mate back to the pavilion without even scoring a single run.

The team was looking towards an ordinary total when a storm named Diego Rosier came into bat and scored 55 runs of just 27 balls. This gave the team a good head start in the ending overs. Obus Pienaar ended up the innings well for the team as he scored 35 runs in just 10 balls. With this batting display Knights ended up the innings at 205.

The team found themselves struck at 51/3 in the start of the 8th over. Craig Kieswetter was the lone batsman in the team to score 51 runs and looked good while batting. He was the 5th batsman to lose his wicket. With the fall of this wicket the loss for warriors was evident and it did happen in the 19th over as the whole team was bowled out for 131 runs.
