The South African leg of the HSBC Sevens World Series, was held at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Port Elizabeth, takes place on 7 and 8 December 2013.
The tournament was played in emotionally charged circumstances after the death of beloved South African and world statesman, Nelson Mandela, who passed away in the night of 5 December 2013.
In these circumstances the open question was whether South Africa’s Blitzbokke could go one better than the previous tournament when they were beaten in the final by Fiji.
The question was answered… the South African Blitzbokke are the winners and title holders at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Port Elizabeth!

Hey man I like Pro Nutro
Quinton de Kock is the Man of the Match. He says, “It’s very satisfying. During tough times, people hate you, so in times like these, you have to enjoy yourselves. I was not so happy to take Dhoni’s catch because at that stage, we were looking to get to the 20 over mark and I thought we didn’t need a wicket then. ” – what does he mean, was he trying to say there was threat of rain and so they wanted to get to bowling 20 overs as soon as possible so the match wasn’t called a no result and so with the fall of the wicket they were concerned the extra time it would take for new batsman to come to crease could have scuppered them in getting to the magic 20 over mark?? – Well done de Kock anyway on 2nd century in a row and Man of Match

@ grootblousmile:
Looks like Albertus Smith played Craven Week for Pumas in 2011 so very good of him to make such an impact at international 7s already.
