Knights And Dragons Share The Spoils

OBAKENG MELETSE

The Knights and the North West Dragons could not be separated as they played out to a draw at the Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein.

Lesego Senokwanes 205 double century was one of the few highlights in the affected encounter. His knock led the homeside to a first-innings total of 350, and they took a healthy lead of 118 runs after the visitors only managed to score 239/9 declared in their first innings.

There were also decent showings with the bat from Rubin Hermann 56 and Ruan de Swardt 67 for the Dragons, but ultimately, with the weather taking up time in the match, the contest played out to a draw.

Meanwhile, the Warriors were made to rue their poor start to the match with the bat after being forced to follow on chasing a mammoth total of 500 set by Boland. Centuries by Grant Roelofsen 115 and Pieter Malan 106 set the tone for the homeside.
