MURRAY COETZEE, the only centurion on the first two days of the Coca-Cola Khaya Majola under-19 cricket week, continued his good form on day three when he made the top score of 78 (49 balls) in the morning round of T20 matches.
A second round will be played in the afternoon.
Northerns amassed 178/4 to beat North West by 50 runs.
Northerns will also have been pleased with the return to form of their SA under-19 player, Regardt Verster, who made 48 off 37 balls.
Totals were generally on the low side as teams struggled to appreciate the tactical requirements of the 20 overs game. An exception was the strong Boland side, who made 195/2 to beat Mpumalanga by 65 runs with both Jean Bredenkamp and Keegan Pietersen scoring half-centuries.
Border also made a highly respectable 170/5 in their big win over Limpopo by 135 runs.
Eastern Province and KZN Coastal confirmed the impression that they are among the strongest teams at the week with good wins over Griquas and KZN Inland respectively. It was Griquas’ first defeat of the week.
Western Province won by 7 wickets against Easterns, Gauteng were far too strong for Namibia, winning by 9 wickets, while Free State beat SWD by 29 runs.
