Morne van Wyk believes the Ticketpro Proteas’ 69-run win against the West Indies on Wednesday will be a timely confidence boost ahead of the Momentum One-Day International (ODI) series starting at Sahara Stadium Kingsmead on Friday.
The Sunfoil Dolphins need to attain the right frame of mind on a more consistent basis if they are to overcome their indifferent form and finish in the top three of the RAM SLAM T20, captain Morne van Wyk believes.
The Dolphins’ hopes of a second trophy this season may be receding, but captain Morne van Wyk sees the remaining three games of the Sunfoil Series as an opportunity for his side to make further progress so that they can provide an even stiffer challenge in seasons to come.
The Cape Cobras required just one session to wrap up an innings victory over the Dolphins on day three of their Sunfoil Series match at the Maritzburg Oval on Saturday as Beuran Hendricks swept through the Dolphins batting line-up.
A second straight century by Heino Kuhn carried The Titans to a five-wicket victory over the Dolphins at Kingsmead, Durban on today and a place in the Momentum Cup final against the Cape Cobras at Newlands on Friday.
The Dolphins captain Morne van Wyk returned to haunt the franchise he had called home for 17 years when he struck his 20th List A century on Friday night to condemn the Knights to a third straight defeat in the Momentum One-Day Cup.
By their own admission, the Chevrolet Knights and Chevrolet Warriors had largely forgettable campaigns in the 2012/13 Momentum One-Day Cup. Excluding their two head-to-head matches, the two franchises managed just three wins in the 50-over format and found themselves hit regularly by the injury curse.
