SCHOEMAN’S MOMENT OF BRILLIANCE TURNS THE MATCH IN
EASTERN PROVINCE’S FAVOUR
Coca-Cola® Khaya Majola Cricket Week
Hero of the day (day 5)
Cole Schoeman from Eastern Province
Border has been named the Coca-Cola Hero of the Day for day 5 of the 2017
Coca-Cola Khaya Majola Cricket Week.
The prestigious Coca-Cola Hero of the
Day award is presented on each day of the tournament in recognition of a game
changing ‘hero’ moment. Cole was
selected for the award by a Coca-Cola appointed panel of cricket experts after
he ran out in the form Laurentius Smit from Boland when he was beginning to
take the game away from Eastern Cape with a 80 run partnership with Samuel
Henderson. Boland went from 103/1 when Samuel was run out and collapsed to 166
all out after Cole’s moment of brilliance.
“It is a very big honor and privilege
and I am just happy that I helped the team, because that is what being a team
player is all about,” said Cole.
“Congratulations to Cole Schoeman that
had a moment of brilliance on the field to run out Laurentius Smit, his moment
of brilliance turned the game around for his team and put them into a position
to win the game,” said Proteas legend and Coca-Cola Hero of the Day panel lead
Victor Mpitsang.
Phindile Phiri, Coca-Cola® Africa’s
Senior Communications Manager commented, “The Coca-Cola® Khaya Majola Cricket
Week has come to a close and once again it showcased South Africa’s cricket
talent. We had many heroic moments in the week with bat and ball but today’s
hero, Cole Schoeman, did something
different by changing the game with a great moment in the field. Thank you to
our panel of expert judges that spent the week looking for Coca-Cola® Hero of
the Day moments, their effort has highlighted many of our future stars and
heroes and the boys that have won the daily awards will cherish them for the
rest of their lives. ”
