Victoria Cricket Club’s Marco Wyngard has secured the opening Club Cricket SA Player of the Week award for 2018.
Wyngard scored a superb Western Province Cricket Association premier league century against Bellville Cricket Club on Saturday, 6 January.
The talented right-hander’s sterling 114 not out featured six sixes and 10 fours – and spanned a mere 88 deliveries.
His telling contribution carried the visitors from a precarious score of 99 for four to a solid final total of 311 for five – and a formidable first-innings lead over the reigning champions.
In other WPCA premier league cricket, Cape Town Cricket Club’s Geoff Dods completed a remarkable feat against Langa Cricket Club. The right-arm seamer took four wickets across four consecutive deliveries in the 45th over of the hosts’ first innings. Dods had the first victim caught in the deep, bowled the second and third – and removed the fourth lbw.
