Tabraiz Shamsi claimed the best-ever fi gures by a Momentum Multiply bowler breaking ’s record from 12 years ago to help his team crush the by eight on the fi nal day of their 4-Day Domestic Series encounter in last week. The Proteas spinner fi nished with an impeccable 8/32 in 16.2 overs as the hosts were emphatically blown away for 124 on the fourth morning – setting the visitors a meagre target of 63. They got there in nine overs at St George’s Park to move top of Pool B with a second win in as many games. The foundation for this victory was laid in the fi rst two days of the match, when half centuries by (68), (66) and Sibonelo Makhanya (58) gave the Titans a fi rst innings lead of 62 runs. But Shamsi was the star of the fi nal two days with his career-best return, leaving the Warriors in a spin during their second innings. In the end his fi gures bettered Steyn’s return of 8/41 for the Titans against the Eagles that were recorded at Bloemfontein way back in 2007/08. The home side began the last day on Tabraiz Shamsi in action in Port Elizabeth, where he took eight wickets in the Warriors’ 97/6 after being rocked on the penultimate second innings.
