Tuesday 11th December v Woodridge College.
Despite it being holidays the college fielded a strong side including Christiaan Straeuli who willbe at Bancroft's in January. Bancroft's won the toss and batted. The opening bowling was straight and the fielding outstanding and the team found run scoring hard. Only Rishabh Shah with a patient 72 scored effectivley and Bancroft's were bowled out for 159, not enough on a good wicket. However the bowling was effective and Woodridge did niot find it easy to reach their target losing 6 wickets. Pick of the bowlers was Gareth James 10 overs 3 for 35. South Africans do not like facing spin. In the evening the team was taken out to an African restaurant in the countryside where they had traditional Potjke ( a stew cooked over a wood fire ) - a most enjoyable way to end the day.
