JOHANNESBURG: Marques Ackerman’s century blasted the Hollywoodbets Dolphins to a maiden victory of the campaign over the previously unbeaten Imperial Lions, while Gbets Warriors’ Dane Paterson took an impressive seven wickets to help defeat the GbetsRocks in the latest Cricket South Africa (CSA) 4-Day Series round on Sunday.

Ackerman, the Dolphins captain, struck 21 fours on his way to an unbeaten 139 off 127 balls as the home side claimed a convincing eight-wicket triumph after being handed 257 runs as the target for victory during the fourth and final day after the Lions declared their second innings on 166 / 6.

Despite Dominic Hendricks’ efforts of 72 off 164 balls (11 fours) for the visitors, helping them set a daunting target, the Dolphins responded with a dominant 260 / 2 to seal the result, with Grant Roelofsen (54 off 70; 9 fours) and Khaya Zondo (53 off 90 balls; 6 fours) also chipping in.

At St George’s Park in Gqeberha, the Warriors resumed at the crease to add 59 runs to their overnight score, with Tristan Stubbs (52 off 115; 7 fours) notching up an important half-century, before his side were bowled out for 356 to set the Rocks a target of 342 to win.

With the stage set for an exciting final day’s play, fast bowler Paterson grabbed the headlines to claim seven scalps for just 25 runs, including four of the top five Rocks batters, to help leave them 93 / 7 while matching his best wicket-tally in an innings as the visiting side were removed for 174.

Pieter Malan top-scored with 41 for the Rocks but his side fell 168 runs short of the target to give the Warriors a stunning victory.

Due to persistent rain, there was no play possible for the second consecutive day at the Mangaung Oval between the ITEC Knights and the Six Gun Grill Western Province with the match ending as a draw.

In the second division, the Northern Cape Heat clinched a commanding 253-run win over the Eastern Storm at Willowmoore Park in Benoni after the Kimberley-based outfit declared for the second time in the clash, this time on 332 / 6, before dismissing the Storm for 192 to take the game.

The contest between the Hollywoodbets Tuskers and the Six Gun Grill South Western Districts finished as a draw after time ran out during the Western Cape side’s second innings, with Yaseen Valli (57* off 109; 6 fours) and Andre Malan (59* off 116; 8 fours, 1 six) left stranded at the crease.

In White River, following three days of wet conditions, the clash was declared a draw with both Mpumalanga Rhinos and Limpopo Impalas captains shaking hands.

The next CSA 4-Day Domestic Series round gets underway between 27 – 30 January, with the action streamed live on SuperSport’s YouTube channel.
