Pharedi’s precision leads Yorkshire Hub to win over Kimberley Boys’ High
Yorkshire Hub delivered a strong performance to soundly defeat Kimberley Boys’ High School by six wickets in a T20 match on Tuesday.
After Kimberley was sent out to bat, they struggled to get going.
Kago van der Linde top scored with 17 runs off 21 balls, striking three of his side’s eight fours, but the Hub’s bowlers dominated.
Khamohelo Pharedi led the way, delivering a decisive and economical four-over spell during which he captured a superb 3/4.
Keorapetse Jantjies and Rethabile Mabuya also chipped in with two wickets each.
Jantjies snapped up 2/15 in four, while Mabuya’s contribution was 2/20, also from four.
Jantjies also delivered with the bat, top scoring for the Yorkshire Hub as he clubbed three fours in his 21 not out from only 12 deliveries.
At the top of the order, Oarabile Tabakena launched the only six of the match, but he was dismissed for 12 after facing nine deliveries.
Sobusa Sefate provided Kimberley Boys’ High with some hope by taking 2/12 in two overs. Unfortunately, for him, his peers were unable match his wicket-taking ways.
