That's the end of the game and Boland wrap up a massive victory winning by 138 runs. Gauteng Lions was never in the game but that is more down to Boland's excellent performance than it was the former's poor effort. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. Swing and spin benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said Boland proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

The match is drawn. Westerns Province and Free State share the spoils in this battle. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. Spin benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome.

What a finish! A nail-biter to the very end. Well played to both teams, but in the end, there can be only one winner. Boland will breathe a sigh of relief after today's match and will be hoping to be more authoritative in the next one. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. Swing and seam benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said Boland proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.

That's the end of the game and Westerns Province wrap up a massive victory winning by 187 runs. Eastern Province was never in the game but that is more down to Westerns Province's excellent performance than it was the former's poor effort. The bowlers were probably licking their lips when they saw the pitch today - the pitch was very sporting, to say the least. Seam benefited greatly throughout the day. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said Westerns Province proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.
