\"\"Rondebosch Boys’ High vs Wynberg Boys’ High (50-over)<\/strong><\/p>\n

After the coin flip went their way at home, Rondebosch Boys’ High<\/strong> selected to bat first against Wynberg Boys’ High<\/strong> on Saturday.<\/p>\n

A solid batting effort and a good showing in the field, led by bowlers, Raa’id Davids<\/strong> and Timothy Short<\/strong>, carried ‘Bosch<\/strong><\/em> to a 37-run victory.<\/p>\n

Number three batsman, Daniel Bosman<\/strong>, was the first player to produce a steady flow of runs for the home side, knocking a steady 31 off 33 balls, which included seven fours.<\/p>\n

Their biggest contribution, however, came from Timothy Short, batting ninth in the order, who lit up the hosts’ innings by striking five fours and a six in his unbeaten 49 off 41, while Schalk Fourie<\/strong>, with 35, and Adeeb Levy<\/strong>, with 25, made further telling contributions as Rondebosch totalled 225\/9.<\/p>\n

Ihsan Khan<\/strong> provided a recurring threat throughout the home team’s innings, claiming 3\/41 in 10 overs, while\u00a0Michail Tarentaal<\/strong> <\/a>had Rondebosch on the back foot early on in their innings. He removed both openers and returned a sparkling 2\/22 from eight overs.<\/p>\n

Opener Matthew Saunders<\/strong> provided Wynberg’s reply with a sound foundation, blasting two fours and two sixes in an impressive 84 off 118 deliveries.<\/p>\n

Storme van Rooyen<\/strong> weighed in with 28 and Michail Tarentaal <\/strong>contributed 30, but none of the other visiting batsmen stayed in for long.<\/p>\n

Wynberg was well poised to challenge Rondebosch when they reached 163\/5, but they suffered a collapse, losing their last five wickets for only 25 runs as they slid to 188 all out.<\/p>\n

Raa’id Davids<\/strong> and Timothy Short<\/strong> did most of the damage, with Davids capturing 4\/25 in 6.5 overs, while Short knocked over 4\/39 in nine.<\/p>\n

Somerset College vs Hermanus High (50-over)<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Somerset West,\u00a0Somerset College<\/strong> won the toss on their Taberer Oval<\/strong> and opted to bat first against Hermanus High<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Four batsmen made it into the twenties, but none made it beyond, and that cost the home side, with Hermanus chasing down the victory target with four\u00a0wickets to spare.<\/p>\n

Callum Hughes<\/strong> struck four fours in making 31 off 54 balls, while his opening partner, Owethu Moyi<\/strong>, chipped in with a conservative 21 off 48 as the pair put up 52 for the first wicket.<\/p>\n

After the departure of the openers, the Somerset College innings lost momentum as the Hermanus bowlers enjoyed regular successes. David de Klerk<\/strong> mustered a useful 23 down the middle order, while Micqal Mentoor<\/strong> tallied an undefeated 20 at the tail end of their innings, but, after 40.4 overs, the home side was bowled out for 146.<\/p>\n

Attie du Toit<\/strong> was on the money for the Hermanus attack, snapping up 4\/25 in 7.4 overs. Zack Faure<\/strong>, meanwhile, tied down the Somerset College batsmen, snaring 3\/24 from 10 overs.<\/p>\n

When Hermanus batted, Lukas Calitz<\/strong>, with 65 off 56, which included seven fours and two sixes, made a match-winning difference. While none of the hosts’ batsmen pushed on after establishing themselves at the crease, Calitz did, and he did it quickly, too.<\/p>\n

Daniel Kaplin<\/strong> picked up 2\/45 from eight overs, taking the last two wickets to fall in the visitors’ innings, but Hermanus reached 147\/6 after 42.2 overs to win the match with 46 deliveries to spare.<\/p>\n
