Bulbulia grabbed the spotlight with some great performances at last year’s week in Makhanda, which ended with him being selected as captain of the SA Colts side. Later, in January, he led the Western Superstars at the Cubs Week.

The top-order batsman also toured Zimbabwe with the SA u19 Emerging side in September, where he performed well. His form in Cape Town will be crucial to his side’s success.

Alongside him, Hoërskool Wesvalia‘s talented all-rounders, Marneau Dreyer and Luan Vermeulen, will provide further batting depth. Dreyer, also vastly experienced, will, just like Bulbulia, return for a second Khaya Majola stint.

Katlego Molefi, Tumelo Makume, and Katlego Moloto will aim to fly the flag high for the Matlosana Hub, which, with three, boasts the most representatives in the squad.

Hoërskool Klerksdorp‘s Brandon Mathysen and Stephan Janse van Rensburg also cracked the nod, while Ona Senokwane, from Hoërskool Lichtenburg, takes his place in the lineup after an impressive year with the ball for the Liggies.

Berno de Klerk, the captain and opening bowler of Potchefstroom Volkskool, has also earned a second visit to the week, while Potchefstroom Gimnasium all-rounder Caiden Seleka, the younger brother of North West Dragons‘ leg-spinner Caleb Seleka, joins De Klerk for a second Khaya Majola Week. They’re the sole representatives of their schools.

The North West Schools SA20 victors, Hoërskool Rustenburg, have Nathan Rossouw in the squad. His all-round abilities will certainly strengthen the side, especially his batting in the middle order.
