Captain becomes the first player to score a century in the Betway SA20
Faf du Plessis scored the first century in the Betway SA20 at the Wanderers on Tuesday night. Picture: GALLO IMAGES/SPORTZPICS/SA20That is like saying the crowd at the Wanderers on Tuesday night was hushed.
Not that the tournament needed it, but it provided another highlight for an event that has captured the public’s imagination more rapidly than the organisers could have hoped. “It did feel like we were falling behind and that’s when you get those butterflies, but you also know that you need one over, and luckily we got that.”
The momentum had shifted and even though Hendricks was struggling, he became caught up in the fervour and smashed two boundaries in the 16th over, bowled by Simon Harmer.“That was one of the best knocks I’ve seen in T20 cricket,” Super Kings assistant coach Albie Morkel said of Du Plessis’s performance.“When a guy is playing like that it is difficult to stop, especially at the Wanderers.”
