A week ago, nobody in Durban would have given the Hollywoodbets Dolphins the faintest chance of reaching the final of the CSA One-Day Cup. On Wednesday night they achieved precisely that when they beat the high-flying Momentum Multiply Titans by 65 runs in the qualifier at Kingsmead.
The Hollywoodbets Dolphins have booked their spot in the One Day Cup final with a 65 run win over the Momentum Multiply Titans!!💪Last Sunday, when the Dolphins faced the North West Dragons in their final log match, they knew that even a bonus-point win wouldn’t have been enough if the Titans won their last match.The Dafabet Warriors, it transpired, had breached CSA protocols relating to the composition of teams the previous month, ironically against the Dolphins.
At that stage Hanu Viljoen and Eathan Bosch combined to add 86 in 106 balls for the sixth wicket and the home team went on the compile 228 for eight – a respectable total in the conditions but hardly intimidating. The collapse continued when skipper Neil Brand pulled Prenelan Subrayen straight to mid-on; then Jhedli van Briesies was castled by Keshav Maharaj who had made himself available for the Dolphins.
Former Dolphin Andile Phehlukwayo briefly threatened resistance but he was caught on the long-on boundary attempting to smash Maharaj for six.
