Opening batsman Quinton Dreyer and his UWC teammates will go all out to bank back-to-back victories in Western Province’s Premier Division when they host Green Point on Saturday.
The students have been wisselvallig so far this season, but klapped Western Province Cricket Club by 44 runs last weekend, with Dreyer leading from the front to score 93 runs.
He will undoubtedly look to repeat those heroics against a Pointers side who are currently third on the log after scoring a narrow seven run win over Claremont last weekend.
Log leaders Durbanville, meanwhile, beat Ottoman by 133 runs and face Rondebosch tomorrow, with the in-form Jean Strydom, who scored 84 against Ottoman, being their key man. Rondebosch come off a nailbiting finish in their game against Kraaifontein, which ended in a tie last week .It was Ali Akbar Shaik (4/38) who took the last wicket which saw them share the spoils. And with both sides still unbeaten, this should be a cracker of a game.
