Leus du Plooy and Donovan Ferreira had notable knocks in the final stages of The Hundred in England.

Johannesburg-born England international Keaton Jennings scored 30 off 12 deliveries (three fours, two sixes) in the London Spirit’s 21-run DLS loss to the Northern Superchargers.

Donovan Ferreira hit 27 runs off 10 balls (three sixes) in the Oval Invincibles’ six-wicket defeat to the Trent Rockets.

Leus du Plooy struck 39 off 32 balls (five fours) in the Southern Brave’s dramatic Super Over victory against the Birmingham Phoenix in the eliminator playoff.

But Du Plooy’s 20 off 14 balls in the final against the Oval Invincibles wasn’t enough as the Brave suffered a 17-run defeat.

Ferreira made just five off four balls for the Invincibles, but got his hands on the trophy.
