The revised dates and composition of the Western Province Cricket Association’s Ama20 Competition semi-finals have been confirmed.
Several key play-off fixtures were delayed after “complaints were brought to the attention of the local leagues that clubs who qualified for the semi-finals fielded ineligible players.”
The clubs under investigation were Cape Town Cricket Club, Bellville Cricket Club, University of Cape Town Cricket Club, Ottoman Cricket Club and Mandalay Cricket Club.
“Only one club was disqualified – Mandalay Cricket Club,” commented WPCA club and facilities co-ordinator Thulani Zideba.
Milnerton Cricket Club were belatedly preferred to Edgemead Cricket Club as hosts of 13 December 2015’s Ama20 Competition first division A semi-finals.
