On the 9th of February our first team cricket side embarked on their second cricket tour of the year playing three cricket games. The first game was against Hopefield High School were we narrowly lost by 18 runs. Second day of tour we played Curro Langebaan. The boys were pumped to try and get their first win. Curro Langebaan won the toss and elected to bat first. Our Bowlers stayed patient and disciplined as we bowled them out for 85 in the first innings. After keeping Curro Langebaan to a underwhelming score, the batsmen were confident in their abilities to chase down their total. An early wicket in the first over added some nerves in the camp but a solid second wicket partnership took the team to a 9-wicket win.

Our final game of the tour was the annual fixture against Vredenburg High School. We won the toss and elected to bat first. The openers took their time and applied themselves which led to a solid partnership between Daniel Haschick and Waseem Fredericks who both ended up scoring fifties on the day. The team scored 255/9 in our fifty overs and our Bowlers once again stayed disciplined and bowled them out for only 42. 4 of those wickets being taken by Ethan Smeda.

On Saturday 18 February we played against Western Province RPC. Edgemead High School won the toss and elected to bat first. The team lost a quick wicket in the third over, but they continued to push through. A solid knock of 83 from Daniel Haschick helped take the team to a total of 203 after the 50 overs. The opening batsmen of WP RPC really had to make our bowlers work hard but they stayed patient and once we got both openers out the rest of the team crumbled after them with the help of Brandon Less who picked up 5 wickets in his bowling spell. We bowled them out for 106 and won the by 97 runs.
