(BCB) continued recently with Cotton Tree Die Hard’s opening batsman Jagdeo Persaud slamming 94 (6×4 5×6) and teammate Shazam Gafoor hitting a brilliant 90 (8×4 7×6) to guide their team to 237 for 7 in their allotted 30 overs against No. 7 Silver Park.
The two batsmen put on 184 for the 2nd wicket which was very timely as no other batsman made more than 8.

Other batsmen with half centuries were Tony Garnett of Kendall’s Union A, Parasram Tilkuram of Letter Kenny Young Star, Ravin Seecharran of Kendall’s Union B, as well as Chandradat Roopnarine and Yuvendra Chinapen both of Fyrish.
There were 5-wicket hauls for Seenauth Joseph of Tamarind Root and Jaipersaud Baijnauth of Letter Kenny Young Star.
