Matches Saturday 7 November
After the excitement of scheduled matches after so many months of lockdown, all games against Paarl Boys’ High were washed out by the sudden rainstorm on Friday. However, we did manage a controlled internal match at home in the testing wind and weather conditions, with the 1st & 2nd XIs batting under the swollen clouds over the Silverhurst Fields.
