Harricharran (83) Thakoordeen (57), Singh (5-41) shine as Whim advance
The 2009 New Building Society (NBS) 2nd Division 40-Over Cricket Competition organised by the Berbice Cricket Board continued recently with Whim Nationals defeating Johns in their Zone K (Lower Corentyne East) preliminary match to end unbeaten and thus winners of that zone.
Half-centuries from Tulsie Harricharran (83) and Devindranauth Thakoordeen (57) piloted Whim to 253 for 7 in their 40 Overs. When Johns relied, Mundasammy Veerasammy slammed 107 with 10 fours and 5 sixes. Left-arm spinner Deokarran Singh picked up 5-41, Johns lost by 61 runs as Whim National advanced to the last 16 play-offs.
