DHS needed 49.2 overs and nine wickets to score 209 runs to secure victory in the encounter. Havemann, who scored an unbeaten 52 off 72 (4x4s), was critical to the home side\u2019s successful chase.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fabian Lazarus\u2019<\/strong> side did not begin their chase well. After choosing a circumspect approach at the start of their innings, the coastal side found themselves on 8\/1 after 3.4 overs. <strong>Ismaeel Omar<\/strong> (51) stood tall as he set DHS back on course. The opener was part of three partnerships that added a combined 86 runs in 19.5 overs. Omar\u2019s half-century came off 73 deliveries and featured four boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>Omar\u2019s dismissal in the 24th over coincided with the arrival of Havemann at the crease. The number six batter kept his head down and focused on the task at hand as a procession of wickets fell at the other end. None of the five batters he shared the crease with reached the 20-run mark. <strong>Bayanda Majola<\/strong>, who scored a run-a-ball 15, was the highest scorer among all his partners.<\/p>\n<p>Sechaba Gude was the pick of the bowlers for Hilton with three wickets for 42 runs in 10 overs. Kyle Christie and Benoit Rey bagged a brace of wickets each.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the day, Bayanda Majola took a three-wicket haul of his own as he helped DHS stifle Hilton\u2019s progress. The pacer finished the game with three wickets for 26 runs in seven overs. He was well supported by <strong>Semal Pillay<\/strong>, who bagged a brace, while Taine Havemann, <strong>Jared Havemann<\/strong>, <strong>Dhilan Naraidu<\/strong> and <strong>Bhavesh Naicker<\/strong> took a wicket each.<\/p>\n<p>Hilton\u2019s top six batters all had starts but couldn\u2019t make much out of them. Only Charles Swart, who made a 76-ball 45 came close to a milestone. Two other batters, <strong>Jayden Roux<\/strong> (32) and <strong>Rob Burman<\/strong> (30) reached the 30-run mark, while <strong>Ben Hockley,<\/strong> Simon Steyn and Natenzi Denenga passed 20. This sextet\u2019s inability to kick on also meant that Hilton was unable to compile big partnerships that could take the game away from the hosts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Summarised Scorecards<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hilton College 205\/10<\/strong> (Charles Swart 45, Jayden Roux 32; Bayanda Majola 3\/26, Semal Pillay 2\/24); <strong>Durban High School<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>209\/9<\/strong> (Taine Havemann 52*, Ismaeel Omar 51; Sechaba Gude 3\/42, Kyle Christie 2\/36) <strong>Durban High School won by one wicket<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taine Havemann scored an unbeaten half-century as he shepherded Durban High School to a 1-wicket win over Hilton College in their 50-over match contested at DHS on Saturday.
