Fresh faces for Dolphins East London trip

Marques Ackerman batting for the Hollywoodbets Dolphins in the 4 Day Franchise series cricket match vs the Knights

Michael Erlank could be in line for a Hollywoodbets Dolphins debut while seamer Graham Hume returns to the squad following a long absence for the sides CSA 4-Day Franchise Series clash with the Warriors at Buffalo Park in East London from 21-24 January.


Hume, who recently went past 300 first class wickets, has been in good form for Hollywoodbets KZN Inland and will be relishing the opportunity to get back into the Dolphins mix following a long period looking in.

Erlank has been a pivotal member of the Hollywoodbets KZN Coastal side for the past few seasons and will be itching to get a shot at franchise level.

The Dolphins showed what they are capable of with the bat when they managed to score over 350 in their first innings of their last encounter against the VKB Knights in Pietermaritzburg.

They followed that up with a brilliant bowling display where they bowled the visitors out for just over 200 in their first innings.

Unfortunately the weather intervened and as much as both sides pushed for a result it ended in a draw – with the Dolphins taking 14.7 points from the encounter.

In the first encounter between the Dolphins and the Warriors in Durban the hosts were in a strong position going into the final day; however a batting collapse meant that they were bundled out and lost the match.

The Dolphins are in sixth on the log while the Warriors are in third place. A win for the Dolphins will mean that they can jump past the Multiply Titans and the Knights into fourth on the log.
