National Secondary schools U-15 cricket (Berbice zone)
Six-wicket hauls for John and Smith
Orlando Tabber
Nial Smith
The Berbice leg of the Ministry of Education / National Sports Commission / Guyana Cricket Board / Guyana Teachers Association Secondary Schools 40-overs under-15 Cricket Competition began with the inter-school level in the New Amsterdam / Canjie District.
Off-spinner Mark John took 6 for 24 as School of the Nations New Amsterdam (SON-NA) bowled out Berbice High School (BHS) for 136 in 24 overs.
However his excellent effort was overshadowed by the lack luster performance from his batsmen as his team fell for 89. Pacers Judason Bess, 4 for 17 and Cledwin Cort, 3 for 15 combined to gave Berbice High School a comprehensive 47-run victory.
Also amongst the wickets was pacer Nial Smith from Canje Secondary School, whose 6 for 26, helped dismiss Vryman’s Erven Secondary (VES) for 81 in a nail biting affair.
