Western Province dethroned the Central Gauteng Lions as the champions of the annual Khaya Majola Week on Friday.
WP won the final of the tournament played at Rondebosch Boys’ High by five wickets, with captain Beni Hansen scoring 50.
Hansen also won the toss, which was critical, as during the week no team that batted first managed to bag a victory.
The Lions were bowled out for 175, with Morteza Manack making 56 and Tiaan Goosen 53.
Mbulelo Dube (4-38) was the pick of the WP bowlers.
The foundation for WP’s run chase was laid with a 73-run partnership for the third wicket between Hansen and Daniel Bosman (46).
Since 2010, the Lions have been involved in the main match or the final of the Khaya Majola Week nine times, which makes them the most successful province of the era.
