Warriors batsman Matthew de Villiers struck a maiden century in first-class cricket this week.
De Villiers scored 201 in this week’s 4-Day Domestic Series, division one, fixture against the Knights at St George’s Park in Port Elizabeth.
He faced 221 deliveries and collected 28 fours.
Earlier this month, de Villiers was named Player of the Match on One-Day Cup debut. He hit 49 not out against the Lions – also at St George’s Park.
De Villiers, who previously represented the Western Province Colts, joined the Warriors on a high performance contract before the start of the 2024-25 domestic season in South Africa.
De Villiers hit 94 and 58 on first-class debut for the Warriors in October 2024.
“It was a pinch-me moment. I worked for that moment all my life and, finally, I was living my dream,” de Villiers told Chadwick Drive at the time.
He was among the leading run-scorers for Claremont Cricket Club in the Western Province Cricket Association premier league for several seasons before joining the Warriors.
