Namibia’s bowlers did well to dismiss Eastern Province for 264, but their top order batsmen once again capitulated as Namibia reached 49/3 at stumps on the first day of their three-day CSA Challenge match in Port Elizabeth.

Both Raymond van Schoor and Gerhard Rudolph were dismissed for 3 runs apiece and just before stumps Namibia suffered another setback when Norbert Manyande was dismissed for 22. The not out batsmen were opener Willem Groenewald on 9 and Craig Williams who still had to open his account.

Participants were pushed to their limits as the tough routines took their toll on some of the riders.
