Pitch Report
Captains: 9
Matthew Breetzke WAR | wk
Warriors have found Matthew Breetzke come back to form with a brilliant half century in the last game. The 25-year-old had been one of the best young talents on show during the SA20 2024 this season.
Rubin Hermann NWD | wk
In an otherwise dismal season for the North West Team, Rubin Hermann has been like an oasis in the desert. The 27-year-old has time and again given his side great starts with the bat. With a score of 96 against Boland, Rubin Hermann showed why he is one of the brightest young talents.
Andile Mokgakane WAR | BAT
Young batter Andile Mokgakane has been one of the best young emerging talents with the bat this year. His knock of 48 in the last game saw the young batter play some exquisite shots to wow the fans and experts.
Migael Pretorius NWD | ALL
29-year-old medium pacer Migael Pretorius was the star with the ball for North West against Boland. His figures of 4/14 from four overs decimated the Boland batting order. His ability to swing the ball at decent speeds makes him a very difficult bowler to face in the T20 format.
Patrick Kruger WAR | bat
With each and every passing game, the reputation of Patrick Kruger has been picking. The 29-year-old is known to be an attacking batter with the ability to score at quick pace. His medium pace bowling also does a good job especially when the captain needs to break a critical stand.
Senuran Muthusamy NWD | all
With figures of 0/17 from four overs 30-year-old Senuran Muthuswamy showed his wares with the ball. The out of favor South African star will be looking to continue his good performances and perhaps be picked for the World Cup in June.
