Another home loss for King Cetshwayo

The 50-over encounter was reduced to 30 overs owing to rain

RH CONSTRUCTION King Cetshwayo’s performance slump continued when they went down by three wickets (Duckworth Lewis method) to Crusaders in a Castle Premier League game played at Addison Park on Sunday.

The 50-over encounter was reduced to 30 overs owing to rain..

King Cetshwayo headed out first to set a defendable total under difficult batting conditions.

The home side reached 99/9 during their stay in the middle, with only captain Jason Redinger (20), Gary Park (18), Zakhele Ntuli (14) and Neill Jordan (13) recording double figures.

Crusaders reached 97/7 in the 23rd over before rain stopped play, forcing the Duckworth Lewis system to come into play.

The Durban-based side recorded the win, despite the heroic bowling efforts of Ruan Janse van Rensburg (3/29 in 6) and Jordan (2/28 in 6).

King Cetshwayo will travel to Durban on Sunday to take on UKZN in their next assignment.
