However, Saturday&#8217;s encounter with the Boland Landbou bowling attack was a chastening occasion as Somerset wilted before the home side&#8217;s challenge.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Parel Vallei<\/strong> flexed their muscles against the local competition, running roughshod over <strong>DF Malan<\/strong> and <strong>Strand<\/strong> in their two most recent outings, and winning both by nine wickets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sibulele Makaleni<\/strong> excelled with the ball, taking 5 for 26 to spearhead DF Malan&#8217;s dismissal for a mere 103 runs. Earlier in the week, the Parel Vallei bowlers also dictated the course of the match when they restricted Strand to 78\/9.<\/p>\n<p>In both encounters, Parel Vallei&#8217;s dependable opener, <strong>Quan van der Merwe<\/strong>, displayed class and finesse, steering his side to seemingly effortless wins. A half-century against DF Malan was just reward for his recent efforts at the crease.<\/p>\n<p>The back-to-back victories suggest more good things to come from Parel Vallei this season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gerrad Kamalie<\/strong> was instrumental for<strong> Stellenberg<\/strong> as they dismantled <strong>Fairmont<\/strong> in their own backyard.<\/p>\n<p>He scored 49 runs without losing his wicket and backed up his impressive batting performance by dismissing 6 Fairmont batsmen to help his team stifle the Fairmont attack before it could really get going.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summarised scorecards:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Roos 268\/8\u00a0<\/strong>(William September 101, Extras 35, Cormey van der Watt 33, Beor van Reenen 32,\u00a0 Josh Jordaan 26, Callum Appollis 24; Michael Kotze 2\/28, Peyton Leigh 2\/45, Tiaan Louw 2\/54, Matthew Brodziak 2\/70); <strong>Diocesan College 163\u00a0<\/strong>(Kashief Joseph 48; Dian Winkel 4\/36, Calum Appollis 2\/30, Riley Norton 2\/36). <strong>Paul Roos won by 105 runs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Boland Landbou 253\u00a0<\/strong>(Stefan Conradie 67, Marius du Plessis 51, Extras 50, Francois Prins 31; Callum Hughes 4\/51, Chris Varie 3\/59);\u00a0<strong>Somerset College 49\u00a0<\/strong>(Callum Hughes 14; Markus Groenewald 4\/10, Janco Visagie 2\/10, Marius du Plessis 2\/17).\u00a0<strong>Boland Landbou won by 204 runs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>DF Malan 103\u00a0<\/strong>(Benjamin Grobler 37, Eddie Fick 24; Sibulele Makaleni 5\/26, Josua Smit 3\/19);\u00a0<strong>Parel Vallei 105\/5\u00a0<\/strong>(Quan van der Merwe 52*, Christopher Hughes 32*; Reuben Braxton 1\/46).\u00a0<strong>Parel Vallei won by nine wickets.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Strand 78\/9\u00a0<\/strong>(Nathan Drotskie 27*; Jameel Ismail 3\/9, Damian Faure 3\/17, Josua Smit 2\/4);\u00a0<strong>Parel Vallei 79\/1\u00a0<\/strong>(Quan van der Merwe 35*, Extras 25; Daniel Theron 1\/18).\u00a0<strong>Parel Vallei won by nine wickets.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Stellenberg 248\/9\u00a0<\/strong>(Extras 58, Gerrad Kamalie 49*, Yiva Dwaleni 33, Wilhelm Smet 27, JJ Rothman 20, Kyle van Santen 20; J Passman 3\/47; D Kok 2\/38, S Hoctor 2\/44);\u00a0<strong>Fairmont 100\u00a0<\/strong>(Colby Meade 55, Extras 25; Gerrad Kamalie 6\/29, Kyle van Santen 2\/20).\u00a0<strong>Stellenberg won by 148 runs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Charlie Hofmeyr 87\u00a0<\/strong>(Extras 36, Louis Reynolds 22; DJ Luck 2\/3, Juann Jansen van Vuuren 2\/14, Ernst Coetzee 2\/16);\u00a0<strong>HTS Drostdy 88\/4\u00a0<\/strong>(Juann Jansen van Vuuren 21, Ruan Nortj\u00e9 21; Louis Reynolds 2\/20).\u00a0<strong>HTS Drostdy won by six wickets.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paul Roos and Diocesan College locked horns on the Frank Reid Cricket Field in Rondebosch on Saturday, with both teams riding high after unbeaten campaigns at last weekend&#8217;s Cape Schools Festival.
