\"\"Bishops Diocesan College<\/strong> continued their excellent early run of form in their 175th anniversary year with another dominant performance on Saturday, this time against Paarl Gimnasium<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Tiaan Louw<\/strong> (3\/32) and Waldo Bassick<\/strong> (4\/36) combined brilliantly to apply massive pressure on the Gimmie batsmen from early on. On 45\/6, the visitors were in deep trouble.<\/p>\n

Charles King<\/strong> stood firm, though, stubbornly negotiating 114 deliveries and etching out 51 runs, to help his team to a more respectable, though still precarious, total of 123 all out.<\/p>\n

When Bishops took to the crease, however, De Waal Vivier<\/strong> went on a wicket-taking spree, leaving the hosts shellshocked on 15\/3 in the early going.<\/p>\n

Calum Daniels<\/strong>, however, steadied the ship with an innings of 44, but it was Thaafier Japhta<\/strong> who really let loose on the Gim bowlers. He smashed an unbeaten 69 runs to drive Bishops over the line and on to a six-wicket win.<\/p>\n

SACS’ <\/strong>captain Reza Salie <\/strong>led from the front, tallying an undefeated 102 runs, which played a big role in lifting his team to a solid 249 all out, batting first against Ho\u00ebrskool Bellville<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Litha Kraai<\/strong> then increased the visitors from the north’s woes by making light work of the Bellville top order, grabbing four wickets for a mere 15 runs.<\/p>\n

With Ulrich Roth<\/strong> (2\/15) and Ben Blackburn<\/strong> (2\/20) both picking up a brace, the Bellville batting line-up crumbled to 75 all out.<\/p>\n

Andr\u00e9 Bernhardt<\/strong>‘s unbeaten 38 was the highlight for the visitors, but the SACS’ stalwarts proved too skilful for the team from Bellville.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Somerset College <\/strong>hosted\u00a0Pinelands<\/strong> in a two-day clash.<\/p>\n

Eden Scott<\/strong> (72), Chad Ayford<\/strong> (68) and Jonno Firth<\/strong> (50*) were at the forefront of the hosts’ charge as they posted 238\/9 and 110\/5 in their time at the middle.<\/p>\n

The challengers were unable to match Somerset’s run rate, with the home team’s bowlers frustrating them throughout, which led to the hosts securing a mighty 160-run victory on the Taberer Oval.<\/p>\n
