The 1st XI begins their St David's Marist Inanda Fasken Festival campaign on Mitchell Field today, after two warm-up matches.

On Saturday, the College beat Queens High School by 181 runs, then lost to St Stithians College Boys' by 38 runs on Monday.

Head Coach Bongani Ntini is happy with where the team is heading. "We are beginning to get everything in place, and it was beneficial to give everyone valuable time out in the middle," he said. "The results of these preparation games are secondary. We saw several strong individual performances, which is particularly pleasing."

Bryn Gilmour (UIV Thomson) was one of them, scoring 41 against Queen's and 93 against Saints.

St John's play has started against Hoërskool Waterkloof today and tomorrow, and they will face Clifton School on Saturday and Sunday. Best of luck, gentlemen!
