Saturday 16 December 2017 19:46, UK
Titans secured a third Ram Slam T20 Challenge title on the bounce as they crushed Dolphins by seven wickets at Centurion.
Watch highlights from the match above as Albie Morkel's side eased past Dolphins' paltry 100 all out with 8.5 overs in the bank to earn a record-extending sixth Ram Slam crown on Saturday night.
Titans, victorious over Dolphins in 2015/16 and Warriors in 2016/17, dominated with the ball, Chris Morris taking 4-13 from 3.3 overs and Malusi Siboto and Lungi Ngidi bagging two wickets each.
Morris dismissed openers Vaughn van Jaarsveld (14) and Morne van Wyk (6) early on and then took two scalps in two balls to end the innings, including Andile Phehlukwayo (21), as Dolphins were skittled in 18.3 overs.
AB de Villiers then lashed three sixes in his 27 from 13 balls before he was caught in the deep with six runs required - Quinton de Kock (39 off 27) having given Titans a rollicking start to their innings.
South Africa's stars return to international action on Sky Sports Cricket shortly, starting with the four-day Test against Zimbabwe from Boxing Day and then the three-Test series against India from January 5.
