Speaking with Kaieteur Sport after the game coach of the Essequibo team Forbes Daniels said he is disappointed with his team’s performance. Daniels said that his boys are not playing as a team and more training camps should be arranged in the County for the youngsters.
He stated that Essequibo is not short of talent but financial assistance is needed to develop players. He also informed that his players should be more careful in their running between the wickets and that is one area he will look at since several of his batters were dismissed via the run out route.
Meanwhile, Demerara coach Gavin Need stated that he is pleased with his charges performance, highlighting that they played as a unit. (Zaheer Mohamed)
