South Africa Star Postpones His Wedding Ceremony By An Afternoon To Play SA20 Final: 'My missus said i'm hoping...'
At the same time as the SA20 reaches its end in South Africa, another surprising second changed into shared as it became revealed that Proteas and Sunrisers Eastern Cape batter David Bedingham reportedly double-booked two of the most important activities of his life for the same weekend.
According to South African cricket reporter Firdose Moonda, Bedingham had set plans for his marriage to fiancée Jenna van Niekerk over this weekend; however, he realized that he had accidentally set himself in an intricate function as he helped his group attain a 3rd consecutive SA20 final.
"The marriage became booked and deliberate, but then the SEC made the very last, so now he has moved the wedding to tomorrow," claimed Moonda, indicating that thankfully an alternative presented itself to Bedingham.
Sunrisers were ultimately unable to make it a three-peat of titles, as MI cape town handily beat them in the finals to win the 0.33 version of the match. Bedingham turned into dismissed early via a national teammate, Kagiso Rabada, and not one of the batters could click for SEC in a steep chase as MICT's celebrity-studded roster lifted the title.
30-yr-old Bedingham had in advance given an interview to supersport highlighting his plan for the large weekend, declaring that he still had to make the flight to his wedding ceremony location on the sunday after the day's last.
"My missus, the day before today, changed into actually announcing, I am hoping you men lose; however, she said once we gained that we should make it to the very last and then optimistically make it to the wedding as well," defined Bedingham, who overlooked his own bachelor birthday party at the same time as SEC had been playing the qualifier vs Paarl Royals and had to get replaced on the trip via his very own father.
"My first-rate man and my brother also are flying up, and essentially, they advised my missus that they would make certain I make the flight. I stated it would turn out to be with me making sure they get on the flight," joked Bedingham.
In the SA20 final, Sunrisers could not make it 3 wins from three tries, as MICT ended their run of dominance with a terrific performance. Blitzes from Ryan Rickleton at the top and Dewald Brevis inside the death helped them post 181 in the first innings, before the big-name trio of Trent Boult, Kagiso Rabada, and Rashid Khan defended that with some stellar performances. MICT came via winners with the aid of 76 runs.
