\"NewsGDewaldBrevis\"Ho\u00ebrskool Garsfontein proved to be a force to be reckoned with at the annual Merensky Cricket Week by beating Cambridge College by a whopping 353 runs.<\/p>\n

Garsies won the toss and elected to bat first. They were off to a flying start as their opening batsman scored freely on what might have seemed like a difficult wicket, scoring at nearly a run a ball. After the first wicket fell and another was retired hurt, Etienne du Toit and Gustav Beer came together.<\/p>\n

Du Toit and Beer let loose on the Cambridge bowlers scoring a 109 (70b) and 93 (49b) respectively. Luan Ferreira also contributed with a blistering 75 of only 39 deliveries to set Cambridge a mammoth target of 469.<\/p>\n

Cambridge were bowled out for 116, with Logan Weetman bagging a five wicket haul (5\/38). Nayleo Sanna (2\/13) and Stefan van Staden (2\/15) were also among the wickets leading Garsies to an impressive victory in their first encounter of the week.<\/p>\n

Ho\u00ebrskool Dinamika also bagged their first victory of the week beating Ho\u00ebrskool Secunda.<\/p>\n

They too won the toss and elected to bat first. Opening batsman, Jadin Schlebush, laid the platform for the batters to come, with a gutsy half-century (52,63b). With the platform firmly set Dean van Onslen (53,28b), Nathan Son (54,44b) and Duandre Niewenhuys (50,30b) pilled on the runs and ensured that Dinamika reach a very competitive total of 345.<\/p>\n

Dinamika\u2019s bowlers restricted Secunda to 173\/8 in their allotted overs. Kyle Middleton was at the forefront and claimed impressive bowling figures of 4\/45. He was backed up by Tyron Whatley (2\/22) and Dean van Onselen (2\/44) to secure a comfortable victory of 173 runs.<\/p>\n

Jaydon Parrot was the shining light for Secunda top scoring with the bat (47,69b) as well as claiming a five-for (5\/72).<\/p>\n
