Durban High School<\/strong>‘s (DHS)<\/strong> dominating run in the <\/span>Eston<\/span><\/strong> One Insurance T20 Night League<\/strong> continued on Monday evening, with School<\/strong><\/em> charging to a 10-wicket win over the Tuskers Hub u19 XI <\/strong>at the Beaumont Eston Farmers Club<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

DHS won the toss and chose to bowl first, but it took a while for the Blue Typhoon<\/strong> <\/em>to make a breakthrough. It came at the start of the eighth over, when Josh Morley<\/strong> bowled Joshua <\/strong><\/span>Kaltwasser<\/span><\/strong> for the innings’ top score of 23 from 22 balls, which included three fours.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately for the Hub XI, they quickly lost two more wickets, including Kaltwasser’s<\/span> opening partner, <\/span>Siphosethu<\/span><\/strong> Ngcobo<\/strong>, who weighed in with 19 runs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Morley laid waste to the Tuskers’ top order batting, dismissing four of the top five. The Hub side, however, benefitted from 17 extras and an unbeaten 16 from Aphiwe<\/span> Nzama<\/span><\/strong>, but they were restricted to a moderate 96\/9 from their 20 overs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Morley led the DHS attack, capturing 4\/18 from his four overs. No other bowler took more than one wicket, but they kept the run scoring rate down, especially Ethan Cooper<\/strong>, who surrendered a miserly seven runs from his four overs, while also claiming the key wicket of Ngcobo.<\/span><\/p>\n

After a short rain delay, the victory target was adjusted to 88 runs from 18 overs. DHS required barely a third of those, rocketing to victory off the first ball of the seventh over.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ethan Cooper followed up his fine bowling performance by bludgeoning an unbeaten 49 off 18 balls, smashing two sixes and eight fours, while Ismaeel Omar<\/strong> made 35 off 19, including seven fours.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the win, DHS remains undefeated after three Eston T20 matches, having previously beaten St Charles College<\/strong> <\/a>and Westville Boys’ High<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
