Westville Boys’ High made short work of Hillcrest High in a Switch Schools SA20 – Volume 2 match played at Hillcrest High on Wednesday. It was all over in just 17.3 overs.

The home side won the toss and chose to bat, but that decision backfired.

Apart from opening batsman Kienan Sawyer, who smashed two sixes and a four in his 21 from 20 balls, no other batsmen fired. In fact, four of them were dismissed for ducks as no one else exited single figures.

With first change bowler, Josh Engelbrecht, leading the way, Hillcrest High was skittled for only 48 in 13.1 overs. He caused havoc, capturing 5/5 in four, which included removing five of the first seven batsmen.

Aarin Rasmussen shone, too, picking up 2/4 in three.

Faced with a low victory target, Westville went after it with aggression. In less than five overs, they had won by 10 wickets.

Kyle McGough launched four sixes and sent another two deliveries to the boundary in an unbeaten 36 off 15 balls, while Aarin Rasmussen appeared relaxed in comparison, adding 12 off 12 as Westville rolled to a hasty win.
