Shanaka’s four-for shuts it down

Dasun Shanaka flipped the game in Seattle Orcas’ favour in a match where every boundary felt like a swing. With Texas Super Kings threatening to grind their way home, Shanaka’s incisive spell broke the chase open and Seattle held their nerve to win by 9 runs, defending 121 in a tense, stop-start finish.

Middle overs choke the chase

The decisive stretch came after the powerplay. Texas were 35/3 early, but the chase didn’t collapse; it slowed. Across the middle overs they managed only 47/2 at 4.7 an over, leaving too much for the back end on a surface where timing was hard-earned. Even with 30 coming at 7.5 an over at the death, wickets kept falling, and Seattle’s bowlers never let a set batter cash in.

Baartman and Shanaka deliver

Ottneil Baartman set the tone with relentless control, conceding just 9 in his four overs and forcing Texas into riskier options. Shanaka then supplied the knockout blows with 4/26, repeatedly breaking partnerships just as they began to form. Cameron Gannon’s 20 off 21 and a best stand of 31 helped Seattle scrape to 121, while Shubham Ranjane’s 40 off 44 and Donovan Ferreira’s brisk 22 off 16 kept Texas in touch without ever truly taking command.

Pre-match parity, decided by death skills

The pre-game numbers pointed to a near coin-flip, with Texas’ head-to-head edge offset by Seattle’s stronger late-overs profile. That’s exactly where the match swung. Seattle’s top order stumbled to 31/3 in the powerplay, yet they still found a crucial late surge — 33 runs in the final phase — to post a defendable total. Texas, by contrast, couldn’t manufacture a similar finishing kick once the required rate climbed.
