Newlands clash heads for exciting finish Peter le Grange - 17 February 2002
Western Province continued to dominate on the third day without being able to turn the knife as Eastern Province came within 100 runs of the home team's score before declaring with one wicket standing. By the close, the hosts had stretched their lead to 150 with nine wickets in hand. Resuming at 197 for 3, debutant Homani continued to impress before eventually falling to Harris's arm ball. Callaghan scored an attracttive 72 before being well caught by Duminy, and after some dogged lower order batting, Kemp hit an aggressive half-century before Bradfield declared. Munnik, the breakthrough bowler the previous evening, went for 25 in a two over burst, but it was the spinners who eventually came to the party. Harris finished with 3 for 131 in 49 overs, and Adams produced some more controlled bowling to take 2 for 77. Left 15 overs before close of play, Gibbs played some attractive shots before being run out attempting a risky single. After that, Kirsten and Trott saw out time with no further loss. © CricInfo
