Nelson Mandela Bay Giants captain Jon-Jon Smuts says it was a pity the rain and lightning interfered in their Mzansi Super League seven run win through Duckworth Lewis Method against the Tshwane Spartans in Centurion on Sunday. The Giants were restricted to 143 for 9 but duly hit back with ball in hand to pick up three crucial wickets and leave the Spartans stranded with only 35 runs on the scoreboard when lightning struck. Smuts says his side will need to capitalize on home ground advantage in their next three matches this week against the Cape Town Blitz on Tuesday, Paarl Rocks on Friday before facing the Jozi Stars on Sunday in Port Elizabeth.
