Justin Kemp and Robin Peterson are included in the SA "A" team and Garnett Kruger has been called up as 12th man for the 4-day game against Australia, starting on Friday at St. George's Park.

Adi Birrell, EP Coach, says he is extremely pleased about their inclusion. "It is a great opportunity for them to play against the best side in the world. A good showing during the match can enhance their careers substantially. Kemp, Peterson and Kruger has worked very hard and we are extremely excited to see these three in action on their home ground."

The performance consultant to EP Cricket, Kepler Wessels, says they are obviously elated that the players now receive recognition for their performance. "We just wish them all the luck and hope everything goes well."

Now that EP has three players in the SA "A" team, there is no reason why you should stay home and NOT support Kemp, Peterson and Kruger. There is still time to enter for the World Record Attempt that will be hosted by EP Cricket in conjunction with the Knysna Oyster Co. and Protem Agencies.

The current World Record is held by James Arney. He devoured 64 oysters in 2.5 minutes at Bentley's Restaurant in London on 1 September 2000.

A tasty thing to remember is Sunday - which is a family day, but what better way for the family to spend it than at St. George's Park. Lunch is available for families at the Bojangles Club. Bookings can be made with Katherine Long of Megapro on 041-5851646.

During the four match days there will be many Castle Lager and MTN give-aways in Castle Corner. On Sunday, SAB will give away Castle Hampers and there will also be a chance to win a ticket to the World Cup and "Beer-for-a-Year".

Spec-Savers will give away thousands of Rands worth of sunglasses at the game. EP Cricket's coaching department will also provide exciting on-field entertainment during the lunch break.
