Dolphins retain Discovery Knockout Challenge after last ball win Sports Staff - 3 January 2002
The Natal Dolphins retained the Discovery Knockout Challenge Trophy with a last ball tie against The Strikers at Newlands on Wednesday evening. Needing five runs off the last ball, Dolphins batsman John Kent pulled a delivery from the Strikers' Grant Elliot to the deep mid-wicket boundary for four thereby forcing a tie. The Dolphins retained the title having lost fewer wickets in the final. Earlier the Dolphins scored a 7 run win over the Titans. The Dolphins batted first and totalled 180 for four in their 20 overs. The Titans came within 7 runs of a victory thanks to a fine 80 from captain Gerald Dros. The Strikers caused a major upset when they easily beat the fancied WP side by 36 runs to reach the final. The Strikers totalled 157 for seven in their alloted 20 overs. WP totalled a measly 121 for nine wickets in their 20 overs. © CricInfo
