The match was played as part of the Kenrich Festival of Cricket, which is set to become an annual event in Grahamstown. Former Graeme College pupil Jon-Jon Smuts received a cheer from parts of the crowd as he took up the bowling and then later came in to bat.
The two teams consisted of four Warriors players, four scholars and four promising players from the current Eastern Province Rural cricket side.
