The 2013 Coca-Cola Khaya Majola Cricket Week kicks off in Durban on 16th December and for five days 200 of the top under-19 schoolboys cricketers from around the country will be in action and new heroes will be made. Teams representing Cricket South Africa’s 16 provincial unions will play in three formats of the game: timed cricket, 50 overs and T20.

The Under-19 Coca-Cola® Khaya Majola Cricket Week is seen within cricket circles as a stepping stone for teenagers who want to play professional cricket and ultimately represent South Africa at an international level. Over 200 players who have come through the week have gone on to play for South Africa, including the three captains currently leading the Test, ODI and T20 teams: Graeme Smith, AB De Villiers and Faf Du Plessis.

Kearsney College in Botha’s Hill will be the central hub for the week, with matches played there, on surrounding fields and in the Durban area, including the Kingsmead Oval. At the end of the week a South African Schools and a South African Schools Colts team will be announced and they will play against Dolphins teams on 21st December.

The fixtures for the first three days of play are announced beforehand, with the games for the remaining days being arranged on a strength vs strength basis afterwards.

There is no official overall winner at the Coca-Cola® Khaya Majola Cricket Week. The two teams that have played consistently the best throughout the week will meet on the main field on the final day and the winner of that game takes home the trophy.

“Our new campaign expression for all our youth properties, ‘Where Heroes are Made’, epitomizes Coca-Cola® South Africa’s message and our reason for sponsoring development,” explains Fetsi Mbele, IMC Marketing Assets Manager, Coca-Cola® South Africa. “The success of any national team is directly linked to what happens at school level and we are proud to have played such a crucial part in helping the Proteas become the number 1 Test playing nation in the world, and not far behind are the ODI and T20 versions of the game. The future Proteas players will be in the making in Durban in December.”

None of the eight matches on the fourth day of Cricket South Africa’s (CSA) National u13 Week here managed to produce a result. All of the matches were affected rain and the matches that managed to get started did so only in the afternoon. An afternoon shower halted all the matches prematurely.

Two matches Boland vs. Northerns and Border vs. Zimbabwe was abandoned without a single delivery being bowled. Gauteng and Griqualand West remained the only two unbeaten sides at the tournament. Both of them will get a chance to travel home with this status intact.

Gauteng will play KwaZulu-Natal in their final match of the tournament at St. Andrews’ Vossies Field. Saints celebrated their 150th anniversary this year. Griqualand West will defend their status against Boland at Chevrolet Park.

The hosts Free State will play the formidable outfit of North West on the final day. They will want to get one back over the visitors after losing in a warm-up match against them before the tournament.

Two batsmen, Simon Holmes of KwaZulu-Natal (54) and Gerald Coetzee (51*) of Free State managed to record half-centuries yesterday. Holmes reached his half-century against Griqualand West. While Coetzee recorded his milestone against Northerns.

Sheena who has bagged the most wickets at the tournament after two days’ play could not prevent his side from losing their match against Eastern Province with his performance.

Sheena has taken 11 wickets during the tournament thus far.

Robert de Villiers of North West continued his form with the bat in hand with 87 runs against KwaZulu-Natal. He is the top run scorer after two days with 150 runs in his side’s two matches. He could however not secure a victory with his innings as the match finished in a draw.

Gauteng’s Mudiwah-Jonah Chankira (94) showed with his half-century against Zimbabwe that he is able to pull his weight with both bat and ball for his team. He grabbed five wickets (5/27) in his side’s first match against Mpumalanga. He and Gareth Schreuder (59) helped Gauteng to 266/8 in their first innings against Zimbabwe which set up the only outright victory for the day.

Free State’s Stefan van der Linde who missed out on the action on the first day produced an allround performance against Easterns.
