Cape Town, South Africa – West Indies Over-50s had their first knock in Cape Town ahead of the Over 50s Cricket World Cup when they took on hosts South Africa yesterday, Sunday March 8, 2020, in their first official warm-up match.
Prior to the start of the 35-overs per-side match the teams agreed to treat the game as a true warm-up match with both sides batting their full quota of overs despite the amount of runs scored and the number of wickets taken.
The match was played at the picturesque Rondebosch Oval in Cape Town on a pitch with true bounce with a slow outfield.
West Indies Over-50s batted first and got to 150-7 from their 35 overs, while South Africa replied with 159-4.
Scores:
WI O-50s – 150-7 (35)
