The Knights recorded the lowest opening powerplay total in the history of the One-Day Cup on 7 March 2025.
The Knights reached 15 for one in 10 overs during Friday’s fixture against the Dolphins at Kingsmead in Durban.
Opener Jacques Snyman was dismissed by seamer Eathan Bosch for three off 10 deliveries.
Bosch completed an opening spell of one for five in four overs, while spinner Prenelan Subrayen collected zero for four in four.
Number three batsman Dominic Hendricks, who the Lions have loaned to the Knights, took 23 deliveries to get off the mark.
The previous lowest opening powerplay total in One-Day Cup history in South Africa was Western Province’s 16 for three against the Dolphins.
Last week, the Titans recorded the 12th-highest total in the history of List A cricket on 2 March 2025.
The Titans posted a final total of 440 for five in 43 overs in Sunday’s rain-affected One-Day Cup fixture against the Warriors at SuperSport Park in Centurion.
Openers Lhuan-dre Pretorius and Rivaldo Moonsamy hit centuries, while middle-order batsmen Dewald Brevis and Neil Brand collected half-tons.
Pretorius’ century came off 61 deliveries – the fastest century by a Titans batsman in the history of the One-Day Cup. Former Proteas batsman Farhaan Behardien held the record previously.
This is the second-highest total in List A cricket in South Africa. The Titans have the highest, too – 2022’s 453 for three against North West in Centurion.
