The Titans claimed a bonus point seven-wicket win over the Cape Cobras in the CSA T20 Challenge match at Willowmore Park in Benoni on Wednesday evening.
The home side won the toss and elected to field first on a chilly autumn evening in Benoni. They didn’t waste time as they got rid of veteran Proteas batsman Hashim Amla, whose form since returning to competitive action after taking time out to tend to family matters has not been great. Amla was caught behind for just two runs, giving Aldred Hawken his first wicket of the night.
Janneman Malan was the next to go as he tried to up the scoring rate but could only manage to hold out at long on. Simon Khomari stuttered and scratched around for his 20 runs but it was the young wicket-keeper batsman Kyle Verreynne that held the Cobras innings together. He scored a gutsy unbeaten 43 on a tricky surface but had to retire because of a blow to the head from a Dala bouncer.
