There are two big movers on this week’s Top 60 First XI Rankings after the dust has settled following an action packed week which saw most of the top teams in action.

Grey High School were pushed to the brink of relinquishing their unbeaten status twice last week, but each time dug deep to keep it intact and lead this week’s First XI Rankings.

The opening Belgotex Sports First XI Cricket Rankings for 2018 is out and even though the season is still barely crawling most of the expected front runners have already risen to the top of the ladder to occupy familiar real estate.

Rondebosch who until last week had gone unbeaten from eight matches came horribly unstuck against one of their old foes SACS which has cut their lead at the top of the table.

The cricket season has resumed for many teams across the country and already we have seen some great results with the bat and ball.

The first half of the U14 cricket season has virtually drawn to a close in what has been a season of mixed fortunes for several of the bigger names.

After an unbeaten run, which now stretches across 13 matches, Rondebosch have edged their way into the leading position on this week’s Belgotex Sports First XI Top 50 Rankings.

A brilliant unbeaten 133 run Zack Momberg from KES help to fashion a big win over St. Andrews School and in so doing nudge the Johannesburg team into the top three of this week’s U15 Belgotex Sports Rankings.

KES put together one of their finest wins of 2018 when they took on the KZN powerhouse, Hilton College at the Oppenheimer Festival which helps to nudge them up to the second spot on this week’s First XI Top 50 Rankings.
