As reported by The South African website, Sizekhaya confirmed prior to the draw that there would be a guaranteed winner – or winners – even if all five numbers and the bonus ball were not picked by anyone.

In the event that took place, the jackpot would then cascade down to division two where anyone who picked the five correct numbers – without the bonus ball – would walk away the winner.

If that failed to produce a winner, then it would cascade down another division to anyone who correctly matched four correct numbers plus the bonus ball.

And that’s exactly what transpired as 15 players are each R1 388 743.20 richer this morning.

The numbers drawn were 17, 18, 22, 34 and 50.

The identity of the winners have not yet been revealed as at the time of publishing.

Meanwhile, the were no winners of the estimated R80 million PowerBall jackpot on Tuesday evening.

The PowerBall numbers drawn were 17, 19, 24, 43 and 44 with the bonus ball being 6.

Following the latest win, the PowerBall jackpots have now been reset for the next draw, scheduled for Friday, 2 October at 21:00 on e.tv and SABC.

The PowerBall jackpot now stands at an estimated R90 million, with the PowerBall Xtra jackpot at an estimated R3 million.
