The disregard and disrespect for the game by this generation of cricketers continues unabated and the power struggles and in-fighting among cricket officials is doing little to inspire hope of a revival of the sport locally anytime soon.
Yesterday at the Malteenoes Sports Club (MSC) ground, 3 Ace Warriors players left their team to ‘go out’ instead of staying at the venue to bat and their 30-7 innings closed, replying to MSC’s 255 should get the attention of the GCA officials.
Former national under-15 Captain Kwame Crosse batted well for 65 while Daniel Gravesande continued to show his all-round potential with 41 while Nichosie Barker (38) and Carlos Larose (30) all failed to build on starts against an innocuous bowling attack.
Mark Commerbatch, Terrence Clarke and Akeem Glasgow took 2 wickets each for Ace Warriors who showed no fight in their reply as Glasgow top scored with 4 as National under-19 pacer Seon Daniels took 3-9.
At GCC, the home team crushed DCC by 7 wickets after dismissing the Queenstown side for 81 with Jaron Byron offering token resistance with 20.
Left-arm spinner Trevon France (4-10), Raphael Singh (3-12) and Gavon Charles (2-36) did the damage with the ball for GCC, who reached 83-3 in 20 overs in reply.
New opening batsman Raj Nanan made 21 while Denish Haywood made 19, Delon Fernandes scored 18 and Kevin Hyman 17 not out for the hosts.
At Eve Leary, Police whipped Transport Sports Club (TSC) by 9 wickets after TSC crashed to 66 all out in 17.4 overs despite 35 from Stephan Sampson.
Randolph Knights took 3-12, Dwayne Singh 3-24 and Shameer Fazal 2-3 for Police who made 67-1 in 13.2 overs with Ameer Mohamed hitting and unbeaten 25 and Singh making 13 not out. The competition continues tomorrow. (Sean Devers)
