Zieg Roos bagged a five-wicket haul to bowl King Edward VII School (KES) to a 41-run win over HS Noordheuwel in their 50-over encounter on Saturday.
KES put aside their defeat to St David’s Marist Inanda in a Schools SA20 tie on Friday afternoon and mustered 159 all out through a team effort.
Vincent Jordaan‘s charges needed someone to bowl them to victory if they were to defend their low total and Roos was their man as he helped his side restrict Noordheuwel to only 118 in 38.4 overs.
Roos, who was introduced in the eighth over, bowled his 10-over allotment on the bounce and snagged a sensational six wickets for 14 runs.
His first over was a double-wicket maiden, which accounted for Wander Roolvink and Brandon Pieters. He followed that up with a wicket in his second over and, by then, Noordheuwel was more focused on survival than anything else.
They became so watchful of Roos’ deliveries that the KES bowler recorded a couple of wicket-maidens as he continued to wreak havoc on Nories.
JD Bezuidenhout was the only Noordheuwel batsman to properly prosper while Roos dominated. He remained unbeaten on a valiant 44 off 62 balls. Marius Penning and Corné Olivier were the only other batsmen to reach double figures on a day on which everyone struggled.
Roos was well-supported by Eric Southey, who expertly cleaned up the tail in an outstanding 4.4-over spell that earned him three wickets for a mere eight runs. Wade McQuinn did his bit, claiming 1/13 in four overs.
Earlier in the day, KES had lived up to the adage of the sum being greater than its parts when their middle order scraped together a string of double-figure individual scores that gave their bowlers something to defend.
Jordaan’s boys started poorly, losing four wickets for 18 runs in the first six overs of their innings. Troy Gordon scored a laboured but valuable 31 off 67 deliveries as he fought to hold the innings together. Abdullah Mohammed (15) and Khwezi Nyamathe (13) reached double figures but were out in the mid-teens.
However, an eighth-wicket stand between Wade McQuinn (30) and Matthews Burgess (29) lifted KES close to the 150-run mark. That total could have been a lot lighter, but Noordheuwel did not help themselves by contributing 28 extras, including 22 wides, which proved to be the fourth-highest contributor to the KES total.
Corné Botha was the pick of the bowlers for Noordheuwel, returning an outstanding three wickets for four runs in four overs. Gomo Sibi and Sage Pretorius bagged a brace each, but Sibi was responsible for 22 wides.
Summarised Scorecards
KES 159/10 (Troy Gordon 31, Wade McQuinn 30; Corne Botha 3/4, Sage Pretorius 2/12); Noordheuwel 118/10 (JD Bezuidenhout 44*, Marius Penning 20; Zieg Roos 6/14, Eric Southey 3/8).
