SAA Provincial Challenge
Michael Smith's unbeaten 179 and an impressive second-innings bowling performance all-round provided the platform for Eastern Province's 187-run victory over Kwa-Zulu Natal at Port Elizabeth. Andre van Vuuren's unbeaten first innings 118 was in vain as KZN crashed to 100 all out in their second knock and a heavy defeat.SAA Provincial Cup
Eastern Province beat Kwa-Zulu Natal Inland by 5 wickets at Port Elizabeth on Sunday thanks to an undefeated 72 from young wicketkeeper-batsman Sean Adair. Ross McMillan had scored 80 as KZN posted 194, but it never looked like being enough, and despite an early wobble, Adair, playing only as a batsman, stayed calm to lead them home. McMillan did his best with the ball, taking three wickets to complete a fine all-round performance, but his team-mates did not match his display.Sam Collins is a freelance journalist based in London
