Gauteng made short work of Free State at the Wanderers in Johannesburg, eventually winning by eight wickets. Having been forced to follow on, Free State made amends for their first-innings collapse, scoring 329 with most of the top-order getting runs. Lefa Mosena scored 78, Riel de Kock got 65 and Benjamin Hector put together 57. Heinrich le Roux improved on his career-best from the first innings to take 4 for 66 and end the innings with seven wickets. For Free State however it was not enough as Gauteng knocked off the 53 required in 48 balls.
Easterns had to be content with bonus points at Willowmoore Park, Benoni, as North West held out for the draw. Having lost all of day one to rain, as well as a few overs on day two, Easterns could not bowl the visitors out for a second time after scoring 308 for 7 in their first innings. A magnificent 133 from Andre Seymore and a career-best 91 from David Wiese meant that Easterns led the bonus-point count after the first innings. Richard Stroh was the pick of the North West bowlers, taking 3 for 47. Facing a deficit of 70, North West crawled along to finish on 125 for 4 when the match was called off as a draw.
Against all expectations the Chatsworth ground staff managed, after two days of continuous rain, to get the pitch and outfield in Durban to a playable condition. With the match, according to the regulations, being decided over one innings, Eastern Province put KwaZulu-Natal in to bat, with Imraan Khan (61) getting off to a flier. Darryl Willemse picked up a career-best of 4 for 56 as Natal totalled 200 all out. Eastern Province started off very slowly in chasing down the target but a 58 off 61 balls from Grant Howell put them in sight of a win. Anley Chinnappa, on debut, put an end to the chase taking 3 for 19 with his legbreaks, leaving the last two batsmen the task of keeping the last 22 balls out. In the end they succeeded with Province ending on 186 for 9 and a draw.
