Blue Bells Cricket Club will play Edgemead Cricket Club in Sunday, 6 April 2025’s Western Province Cricket Association first division B T20 final at Newlands.
Blue Bells Cricket Club and Edgemead Cricket Club collected semi-final victories over Belhar Cricket Club and Cravenby Cricket Club, respectively, to reach this season’s WPCA first division B T20 final.
“We’re excited, but also focused. We know we’re up against a really good Edgemead team who have played really well this season and been very consistent,” said Blue Bells Cricket Club captain Nadeem Bedford.
“There’s a lot of confidence, but also a sense of respect for how strong they are. We just need to stick to our game plan, execute and play with heart.
“It’s going to come down to consistency and composure. Finals are often decided by small moments and, if we can stay calm under pressure, hopefully we can win those small moments and be victorious.”
