Jeppe and the rain impacts Wildeklawer T20 quarterfinals


Seven of the eight Wildeklawer T20 games that were meant to be played on Saturday morning were abandoned due to rain, with only Jeppe High School for Boys vs Wynberg Boys’ High fixture being spared.

The action continues on Sunday, however, with the classification matches.

Catch the action LIVE on SuperSport Schools.

After the group stage assignments, the competition was split into the Cup and Plate, with the top eight contesting the former and the bottom eight in the latter.

Mother Nature’s disruption meant that the teams which had accumulated the most points over the previous two days were through to the semi-finals.

Below is a list of the matches and their results due to rain:

Hoërskool Waterkloof vs Northwood (quarter-final one).
King Edward VII (KES) vs Afrikaanse Hoër Seunskool (Affies) (quarter-final three).

Waterkloof and KES were put through to play each other in the first Cup semi-final.

Grey College vs Rondebosch Boys’ High (quarter-final two).
Jeppe High School for Boys vs Wynberg Boys’ High (quarter-final four).

Grey College was put through, while Jeppe played and won their match against Wynberg by just five runs.

The semi-final between Grey and Jeppe was subsequently reduced to 10 overs a side because of the rain, and Grey romped to a convincing nine-wicket win.

Grey High School vs Durban High School (DHS) (Match E)
Die Hoërskool Menlopark vs Westville Boys’ High (Match G)

Grey High and Menlopark were put through and will therefore play each other in the first Plate semi-final.

St. Andrew’s School vs CSA Invitational Hub (Match F)
St. David’s Marist Inanda vs Paul Roos Gimnasium (Match H)

St. Andrew’s and St. David’s were put through and face off in the second Plate semi-final.

The teams who missed out on the Cup final, Jeppe and KES, meet in the third-place playoff.

Affies vs Northwood and Wynberg vs Rondebosch will decide fifth to eighth places.

Then, Paul Roos vs CSA Hub and Durban High School (DHS) vs Westville determine 13th to 16th places.
