Abrahim secures Griquas' victory over Gauteng

Man of the match Zahir Abrahim engineered an unlikely victory for the Griquas Diamonds on a seesawing final day of their match with the Highveld Strikers at the Wanderers

17 more wickets fall as Strikers and Griquas hurry to conclusion

The race to achieve the first outright victory in this year's Supersport Shield competition was evenly poised on Saturday night, with a result guaranteed between the Highveld Strikers and Griquas, barring the weather taking a hand

Strikers in dramatic collapse but Griquas fare little better

There was no shortage of incident on the first day of this match, although nothing could match the drama of the downward spiral that marked the end of the Highveld Strikers' first innings
