Seleka 4-15 helps Dragons dismiss Boland for 121

Caleb Seleka claimed 4-15 to help the Eastvaal Renault Dragons dismiss Goldrush Boland for a meagre 121 in just 23.2 overs after choosing to bowl first in their CSA One-Day Cup match at Senwes Park in Potchefstroom on Saturday.

The 23-year-old legspinner took advantage of a tacky pitch which had been under covers for much of the last 24 hours to rip out the Boland lower order after Onke Nyaku (2-0-13-1), Migael Pretorius and exciting former Border seamer, Thobile Hlatuka, had made early inroads.

Opener Grant Roelofsen top scored with 39 from 37 balls (6x4) on a difficult batting surface and Lehan Botha battled to 25 from 32 balls but there was never any momentum or stability in the Boland innings which subsided meekly 3.4 overs before its allocation of 27.

The match has been reduced to 27-overs per side because of a wet outfield following torrential rain on Friday and overnight.

Pretorius claimed 2-23 from his five overs with Hlatuka finishing with 2-26 from four overs.
