Heinrich Klaasen is carrying all the luck with him in the ongoing SA20 2025 game against the Joburg Super Kings as he survived a dismissal. The ball brushed past the bails, but it didn't budge, giving a lifeline to the player. The Super Kings were stunned as they heard a noise and appealed to the on-field umpire. However, they didn't receive any response from the umpire.

The incident happened in the first ball of the 13th over when Viljoen was bowling to Klaasen. The batter thought of hitting the ball over the long-on but missed the in-slanting length delivery. It was a unique moment as the bails didn't come off. JSK went for a review but were disappointed in the end.  

Joburg Super Kings won the toss and pushed the Durban Super Giants to bat first. Initially, their decision went in their favor as they got early wickets. By 13 overs, DSG were 103 runs at the loss of four runs. But Klaasen and Wiaan Mulder built a good partnership to put up a decent score on the board. 

Heinrich Klaasen's 76 runs helped DSG against JSK

In the ongoing SA20 2025 game, Heinrich Klaasen showed his true powers and scored an unbeaten 76 runs off 47 balls, including three boundaries and six sixes. Wiaan Mulder also scored 30 runs in 22 balls, including three boundaries and one six. Their partnership helped the Durban Super Giants get to 173 runs. 

This is an important game for the Joburg Super Kings, as they will have to win the game to qualify for the knockouts. It all depends upon the batters now and how they proceed with the game. JSK have a good side, and their probability of winning is also higher.
