Bellville Cricket Club’s Handre Theron has secured the opening Club Cricket SA Player of the Week award for 2017, after scoring a big century against Avendale Cricket Club on Sunday, 8 January.
Theron’s scintillating 165 not out carried the hosts to a comfortable victory in the key Western Province Cricket Association Grand Challenge One Day Cup fixture.
The talented right-hander struck 13 fours and six handsome sixes during an entertaining 161-delivery showcase – and shared a hefty 189-run partnership alongside fellow opening batsman Wikus van Vuuren.
He was particularly severe on third- and fourth-change bowlers Lee Dixon and Shane Dixon, respectively.
