The KZN Dolphins crushed Western Province by 194 runs in their One-Day Cup match at Newlands on Friday.
The visitors posted 317-6 before a fine bowling display led by Prenelan Subrayen saw WP bowled out for 123.
The spinner claimed 3-27 and was supported expertly by Tristan Luus (3-36) and Ottniel Baartman (2-20) as the defending champions were dismissed in just 26.5 overs to stay bottom of the log.
The Dolphins, meanwhile, climbed to fourth and are now just three points off leaders Boland.
And they were fully deserved winners of their second win of the campaign after an excellent performance that was set up by their batsmen.
Veteran Jon-Jon Smuts struck 61 off 61 balls (eight fours) and Tshepang Dithole 67 off 82 balls (10 fours) during an opening partnership of 129.
That was followed by 48 from Bryce Parsons, before Hanu Viljoen (74 off 63 balls; eight fours) and Eathan Bosch (40* off 26 balls) provided the finishing touches to lift the Durban side beyond 300.

In contrast, WP were under the pump from the get-go after both openers, Edward Moore and Valentine Kitime, fell for ducks.
Their struggles continued right the way through after they slipped to 22-3, though they were rescued from complete annihilation by Proteas batsman David Bedingham (45), one of just two WP batsmen to hit double figures.
They then slipped from 62-3 to 78-8 in a matter of 6.4 overs, with Kyle Simmonds (30) ensuring they at least crossed 100, before being last man out in a big loss.
