If duckworth-lewis was in operation, it was a victory for MCC!
Rain intervened in a closely fought topsy turvy match between Marlboro and Roodepoort City.
Batting first MCC mustered 141 on a slowish home pitch depicting the Feroze Shah Kotla of few years back!
The chase by Roodepoort started slow, but were always behind the 8 ball. Wickets fell regularly, and after 19 overs in drizzle MCC were ahead on the rate. However in the 20th an inside edge and a slog both found the fence, and Rooodepoort just pipped it before the downpour.
Roodepoort finished on 78/4 in 20.4 overs, and won by 5 runs.
