National teams victorious in PTA over the weekend

Proteas and Springboks both defeated Australia this weekend in Pretoria.

Pretorians were given a double dose of joy when the Springboks and the Proteas beat Australia this weekend.

A sensational performance from Proteas opener Quinton de Kock saw South Africa draw first blood in the first ODI against Australia in Centurion on Friday in the cricket.

The 24-year-old wicket-keeper was rampant, scoring 178 off 113 balls. Australia made 294 in their 50 overs but with the form that De Kock was in, the chase was made without breaking a sweat.

Then on Saturday, the Boks earned a hard-fought 18-10 victory over the Wallabies at Loftus Versfeld.

Flyhalf Morne Steyn scored all the Boks’ points through the boot. His dominant display extended the Boks’ unbeaten run against the Wallabies at Loftus.
