Skipper van heerden leads from the front in 153-run wins ====================================== In another match, the Blockbuster century from Captain George Van Heerden pushed his team to the Super League quarter-finals because South Africa beat Ireland in 153 running in Tarouba.
Van Heerden made 111 out of 93 balls while Dewald Brevis better known as ‘Baby AB’ contributed 96 to take a total of 315 South Africa for seven of the overs 47 which was reduced by rain before Bowling in 158.
Matthew boasts (3-26) and Liam Alder (3) -20) is a prominent player with the ball for young proteas when they secure second place in Group B and a super league place.
Both parties began their last level of group game level on points, with South Africa having a narrow advantage at a better net-rate table.
With India all but ensuring their place in the last eight Super League before their last match against Winless Uganda, South Africa and Ireland faced a shootout for second place.
Ireland made a dream start when Reuben Wilson erased the opening of the Valentine Kitime in the first for a duck before Liam Doherty Bowled Ethan-John Cunningham (11).
At the age of 18 for two after four overs, South Africa rocked but Dewald Brevis immediately restored the order.
Ireland responded by taking Gerhardus Maree goal (14).
It brought Van Heerden to the fold to form a tough partnership with Brevis.
Brevis reaches half a century with four of the 22nd ball and continues to find the limit at regular intervals.
But only four short things from his century, Brevis was punished because he was sent packaging at 96.
Van Heerden raised fifty before stepping over the gas with Andile Simelane.
Esplosif 25 of 12 balls from Simelana, which included three six and four Macbeth at 38 above, was only added to the problem of Ireland.
Mickey Copeland peeled off with 43 high octane from 18 balls before Van Heerden lifted the century with four.
Ireland’s response could not start a worse start when Liam Doherty was arrested by Maree from Bowling Matthew boasting a golden duck on the first ball.
Nathan McGuire is a steady ship with 42 before the simelane takes his goal, with Joshua Cox and Ireland Captain Tector Tector both fall cheap to boast.
Philippus Roux (33) provides several resistance along with Humphreys (38) but lack of support means Ireland always fighting with uphill fighting and they end up all for 158.
