Cape Town - Reeza Hendricks completed his return to form with an unbeaten 98, but it wasn’t enough to get the Knights off the mark in the Ram Slam T20 as the Cape Cobras triumphed by four wickets at the Diamond Oval.
After going through a lean spell in the Momentum One-Day Cup, when he managed just 101 runs in five innings, Hendricks showed signs of improvement with his 42 against the Dolphins last week and backed that up with a superb 66-ball knock that gave the Knights a total of 174 for five.
That looked to be enough at several points in the Cobras reply, but the defending champions found the firepower in their batting line-up to keep up with a demanding asking rate and pick up their second win in the competition.
