The St Andrew’s College 1st X1 travelled to Uitenhage on Saturday to start their term off with a declaration match vs Muir College. St Andrew’s won the toss and chose to bat.

A good opening partnership between Sasha Gunn and Michael Rushmere set the platform for the innings which ended with St Andrew’s declaring on 240/7.

James Price top scored with a well played 74 and was very well supported by his captain with a solid 52. Earlier Sasha Gunn’s 48 gave the top order a sound position to build on.

Muir batted positively from the start, eager to chase down the total in the approximately 50 overs left for the day.

Damon Weeks was the pick of the bowlers for St Andrew’s but the bowlers struggled to bowl as a unit as the pressure mounted.

Wickets fell but Muir created good momentum which Ryan Dugmore halted a little during his second spell bowling with the wind. Muir found themselves seven wickets down and needing 16 runs off the last over for victory.

Two lusty blows at the start of the last over put St Andrew’s on the back foot as Muir pulled off a very good victory winning by three wickets. Well done to Muir on their deserved victory and the positive manner in which they approached the match.
