[Kweek]

De leede has won the toss and Elected to bat on a Normal pitch.

 

[Kweek]

Van bunge has to dive to make it safe to the other side of the pitch.

 

[Kweek]

2nd over was a good maiden from Ntini, Zuiderent had no idea what to do.
3rd over Pollock came back and van bunge played a very good shot for 4

 

[Kweek]

Ntini comes back and bowls a 88 mile/ph short ball, Zuiderent goes back and just pushes it for 4.

 

[Kweek]

Van Bunge tries to Smack Zondaki who came onto bowl for 6, but missed the ball...Loud appeal from the Africans!!!!
Turned down.

 

[Kweek]

Kallis come onto bowl.
Holland 9/0 after 5 overs. they really need to excellerate now!

 

[Kweek]

in need for excellatration, Zuiderent played a stupid shot and got caght easly by Gibbs

 

[Kweek]

van Noortwijk comes in and plays a awesome shot for 4 on his 1st ball. Kallis not amused!
