Highlights of the Ram Slam T20 Challenge clash between Cobras and Knights at Newlands.

JP Duminy produced a match-winning knock of 67 to inspire the Cobras to a three-wicket victory over the Knights at Newlands.

Watch the highlights at the top of the page to see Duminy hit 67 off 44 balls before being dismissed with one run to win as the Cobras moved off the bottom of the Ram Slam T20 Challenge table with their second straight win.

Theunis de Bruyn led the early charge for the Knights, smashing 40 from 22 balls including three fours and three sixes - David Miller (50) joined in on the act, hitting two sixes of his own on his way to his second fifty of the campaign.

Rory Kleinveldt (3-19) was the pick of the bowlers for the hosts, picking up the crucial wickets of De Bruyn and Miller before some late order hitting from Ryan McLaren (31no off 20 balls) propelled the Knights up to 159-5 from their 20 overs.

With Richard Levi (3) and Temba Bavuma (3) back in the hutch, Hashim Amla (29) and Duminy began to rebuild the innings before the former South Africa captain chopped on to Eddie Leie (2-38).

Wickets continued to fall as Duminy fought a lone battle until Vernon Philander (22 off 11) joined his skipper in a partnership of 51.

Needing one run to win, De Lange trapped Duminy in front but it wasn't enough to avoid defeat as Kleinveldt dispatched the very next ball to the boundary as the Cobras secured back-to-back victories.
