Big weekend for table-topping Hollywoodbets Dolphins

After another resounding weekend of wins against Free State last weekend, the Dolphins have risen to the summit of the 50 Over Cup and sit third on the T20 log which is encouraging for a side that is without several of their senior and national players.

They will go into this weekend with an unchanged squad from the one that did the double last week and coach Angelique Taai understands this weekend will provide a different challenge.

"We want to improve with every single game and this week will be no different given how important it's going to be for us," Taai said.

"It's a vital weekend because it's number one playing number two on the 50 over log and we would like to get a gap on the chasing teams and the girls know what is expected of them.

"Our focus is always about the team, and we know the Titans will have their Proteas, but we don't rely on one player, and we play as a team which is what has got us through so far."

It's a second consecutive week at home for the Dolphins and Taai is hoping that her side can use the Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium conditions to good effect.

"It's always an advantage playing at home and so far, we've been good at home so we will want to continue the good spirit here at home and give the supporters what they want.

"We're always about playing a good brand of cricket that will encourage people to come through and support us," she added.

The Hollywoodbets Dolphins have named an unchanged squad from last week which gives the coaching staff continuity through selection for this weekend's crucial matches against the Titans.
