Bernard Scholtz

“We've got four seamers, and our top spinner Bernard Scholtz hardly played, so to keep SA to about 300 was a really good effort.”

“The mercurial Loftie-Eaton is also a match winner with both bat and ball. Two years ago he smashed the quickest T20 century in history off only 33 balls, although that record has since been overtaken, while last year he became only the fourth bowler in T20 internationals to take four wickets off four successive balls. Trumpelmann, meanwhile, will lead the bowling attack with his raw pace and swing bowling, while he is also a destructive batter with a T20 best of 46 runs and an ODI best of 55. Other fast bowling options include the youthful Max Heingo and Jack Brassell, while the world class Bernard Scholtz will lead Namibia's spin bowling attack.”

“Bernard Scholtz, who is the oldest player in the squad at 35, is just behind Erasmus with 76 caps, while he is Namibia's top T20 bowler with 79 wickets.”

“Scholtz who almost won the match single-handedly, had a great return of five wickets for 25 runs off 24 balls, of which 13 were dot balls.”

“He shared an 82-run opening partnership with Gerhard van Rensburg, before the latter was bowled by Bernard Scholtz for 38, and continued to bat till the death before being dismissed off the second last ball of the innings for 62 (58 balls, 6×4).”

“In reply, the Lions were bundled out for 130, with JJ Smit scoring 73 off 55 balls (6×4, 5×6), while Bernard Scholtz took 3/24.”

“Smit was Namibia's stand-out bowler with three wickets for 50 runs off 8,2 overs, while Tangeni Lungameni took 2/36 and Bernard Scholtz 2/26.”

“His fourth wicket came off the last ball of his four-over spell when he bowled Bernard Scholtz for a duck to become the first Australian man to reach the milestone of 100 T20 International wickets.”

“Scholtz recently posted a video to TikTok, airing his grievances over what he deemed "disrespectful clients".”
