Rain puts damper on Quins cricket
YET another round of cricket was significantly impacted on by the rain.
Of the six Umbilo Harlequins Cricket Club team’s league matches, four were abandoned prior to commencement. However two were completed in Quin’s favour, on fairly uncompromised surface conditions. At the picturesque ACC oval, Quins third side took on Amanzimtoti Cricket Club’s third team. ACC 3 batted first. Quins 3 won by two wickets with eleven balls to spare. This was a tightly contested away match and a great victory for Quins.
The fourth team played UKZN’s third team in a division two encounter, at the University of Durban Westville. UKZN tallied 150 runs in 28,2 overs. Quins 4 won by seven wickets.
