Summerslam update:

Unfortunately, Jbay Dolphins did not qualify for the knockout stage of the Summerslam competition.

We now look forward to the upcoming winter league beginning later this month, as we aim for some good cricket from the guys!

Corporate League Summerslam Match Update:

The team travelled to Heatherbank Corp Cricket League in PE for their last fixture in the Summer Slam.

Jbay lost the toss and were put in to field on a pitch which proved to play much differently than it looked.
YCA were scoring at less than 5 an over at the half way stage before picking the pace up.

YCA eventually ended up on 115 for 4 after their 20 overs.
The Dolphins were ruthless in their reply, achieving the required runs in the 13th over and securing victory by 7 wickets.

The top performers with the bat were:
- Juan van Rooyen in his first outing for the team with a ruthless 34 off 16 balls including a massive six over long on causing play to be delayed by 10 minutes while the ball was being found!
- Leon Leeu Bothma with a composed and aggressive 33 off 14 balls
- Zane Woodland with 9 off 4 balls to seal the victory

With the ball the top performers were:
- Joahn Candrick Cairncross with a very economical 1 wicket for 8 runs off his two overs
- Henk Kotze with 1 wicket for 20 runs off his two overs

The win means that the Dolphins sit on two wins at the end of the group stage and we now await the final standings to determine if we qualify for the quarter finals.

We say goodbye for now!
Our chairman and captain Ruan Thomas is taking a break.
Family, business and an unfortunate injury will see him leave us for a few months.
We wish him all the best and will see him again back in his whites shortly!
Thank you and good luck Chairman!
