JOHANNESBURG: Heinrich Klaasen followed up a first innings century with an unbeaten fifty to help the Momentum Multiply Titans seal an emphatic eight-wicket victory over the North West Dragons in their Cricket South Africa (CSA) 4-Day Domestic Series match in Potchefstroom on Saturday.

The wicket-keeper batter smashed an 82-ball 71* (9 fours, 1 six) in a 121-run partnership with Grant Mokoena, who finished on 50* (87 balls; 3 fours, 3 sixes), to help his side stroll to their victory after the away side dismissed the Dragons for 231 in their second innings to leave them needing 132 runs to win .

The Dragons’ second innings was inspired by Heino Kuhn’s 26th career hundred in First Class cricket, while Lizaad Williams (3 / 16) was the pick of the bowler with an impressive return to limit the hosts.

At the Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium, the Imperial Lions will take a 179-run lead into the fourth and final day after the Hollywoodbets Dolphins posted 337 all out in their first innings response to the Lions’ 428 / 5 declared.

After Grant Roelofsen’s (66) knock on day two, the home side’s effort with the willow was further enhanced by a measured half-century from Ruan de Swardt (59 off 124 balls; 8 fours) and crucial late contributions from numbers nine, 10 and 11 as they all added 20 or more runs.

Lutho Sipamla ended with figures of 3 for 55 with the ball, before the Lions reached stumps at 88 / 4.

In Gqeberha, the Gbets Warriors scored the highest total of the game so far after they resumed the day’s play on 75 / 2 before overnight batter, Wihan Lubbe struck his seventh ton in the red-ball cricket, dispatching 10 fours and three sixes to help power the home side to 297 /6 declared.

Hardus Viljoen (3 / 52) and Stiaan van Zyl (3 / 18) took three wickets apiece for the Rocks before the visitors lost three wickets to end the day at St George’s Park on 52 / 3 still needing 232 runs to secure the win.

Due to heavy rains, there was no play on day three at the Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein between the ITEC Knights and the Six Gun Grill Western Province.

In Division Two, the Hollywoodbets Tuskers added 168 runs to their overnight score to complete their first innings on 332 all out against the Six Gun Grill South Western Districts, with the experienced Cameron Delport (119 off 135 balls; 19 fours, 1 six) bagging a century

The away side then replied with a commanding 135 / 1 to take their lead to 118 with nine second innings wickets remaining.

In Benoni, the Eastern Storm require 418 runs to win after the Northern Cape Heat produced another stellar display with the bat, led by Evan Jones (128 off 132 balls; 13 fours, 2 sixes) to end their second innings on 332 / 6 declared, after also declaring in the first for 434.

Like the conditions in Bloemfontein, rain and a wet outfield meant there was no play possible in the clash between the Mpumalanga Rhinos and the Limpopo Impalas.

The latest round of the CSA 4-Day Domestic Series concludes on Sunday, 16 January with the action live on SuperSport’s YouTube channel.
