Quinton de Kock’s 72 off 61 balls helped the Titans set up a nail-biting victory by 3 runs against the Rocks in the CSA T20 Challenge

This was the first victory of the competition for the Titans, who defended 158-2.

De Kock and Gihahn Cloete were the stars for the Titans scoring the bulk of the runs, their 106-run partnership key to the free-flowing start.

Donovan Ferreira’s cameo 17-ball 27 (1 four, 1 six) was essential to their score and was key to their innings total.

De Kock hit 5 fours and 1 six in a cultured knock, making up for his duck in the first innings.

The Titans bowlers definitely deserve credit for defending their total, particularly Junior Dala (3-36) whose two wickets in the penultimate over, took the sting out of the Rocks’ chase.

The Titans won by 3 runs.
