A CAREER-BEST 81 not out from Bryce Parsons and 4/46 from captain Prenelan Surbayen helped the Hollywoodbets Dolphins to an important six wicket One Day Cup win over the DP World Lions at Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium on Wednesday.

At the start of the game, the Dolphins won the toss and elected to bowl first in what were some bowler friendly conditions.

Again it was the experience of Subrayen who came to the fore with his four wickets.

Ably backed up by Okuhle Cele who picked up two wickets as well the Dolphins bowled the Lions out for 183/9 in 43 overs.

The overs were reduced because of heavy overnight rain which led to a late start on the day.

In reply, Parsons held the Dolphins chase together as the home side patiently went about their business to win the game with 19 balls to spare.

Jon-Jon Smuts also scored a half century for the Dolphins scoring 52 to guide the team to the W.

Scoreboard summary
