Cricket | Frustrating Weekend For Badgers Colts

The Garden Route Badgers Colts had a frustrating weekend in the Cricket South Africa Colts competition.

Keenen Vieira 28*

After the three-day match was abandoned and ended in a draw the home team lost the limited over match against the Eastern Province Colts by 7 wickets.

The three-day match that was scheduled to be played at the George campus of the Nelson Mandela University was called-off by the umpires after the ground staff could not dry a wet patch on the outfield.

The one-day fixture on Sunday was subsequently moved to the Recreation Ground in Oudtshoorn.  The Badgers were dismissed for a disappointing 89 (all out) to which Eastern Province replied with 91/3 in the 19th over for a 7 wicket victory.

The next fixture of the Badgers Colts is against Western Province in Cape Town between 21 and 24 November.

The summarized score card is:

GARDEN ROUTE BADGERS COLTS 89 all out (26 overs) (Keenen Vieira 28*, Alfred Mothoa 3/12, Siya Simethu 2/8, Liam Alder 2/18)

EASTERN PROVINCE COLTS 91/3 (18.5 overs) (JP King 40*, Lifa Ntanzi 2/20) Eastern Province Colts won by 7 wickets
