Northerns senior squads ready for title tilt in SA provincial cricket tournaments

CENTURION: Northerns Cricket Union on Friday announced their senior men's and women's teams that will compete in the South African provincial cricket tournaments.

Ahead of the men's and women's senior provincial tournaments in Kimberley and Cape Town respectively, Northerns have selected two very experienced sides.

"This has been a very tough season for so many of our players, with so much uncertainty. Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, it took a long time for club cricket to get going," Northerns Cricket Services Manager Charlotte Serwadi said.

The two squads have plenty of experience and ability littered across them, and they are expected to challenge strongly for honours.

"Our women's team will be led by Gandhi Jafta, and she can count on the support of the likes of Robyn Searle, Khanyisile Skhosana and Ricea Coetzer, just to name a few. The team has been preparing diligently, and we are looking forward to good results in the Cape," Serwadi said.

In the men's provincial squad, Titans capped Diego Rosier, Gregory Mahlokwana and Rubin Hermann will be the cornerstone of skipper Jiveshan Pillay's plans. IANS
