Rain, poor lighting forces Dragons and Titans to draw
The Star
|March 31, 2025
THE CSA 4-Day Series encounter between the Momentum Titans and North West Dragons was called a draw due to rain over Supersport Park in Centurion on Sunday afternoon.
At lunch, the Dragons were on 174/1, leading by 56 runs in their second innings, and looked set to put up a target worth chasing for the Titans.
The weather disrupted play on all but the first day. Regardless, both teams appeared to be in good form.
Dragons' opening batsman Lesiba Ngoepe played a solid innings, scoring 84* (169 balls) and held the wicket until the end, with Raynard van Tonder on 59* (133 balls). Matthew Kleinveldt lost his wicket for 31 runs to a Merrick Brett delivery, which was caught by Neil Brand.
