2011 Tenelec Inc. 1st Div. 50 over tourney …Edinburg defeat Skeldon; RHT Gizmos and Gadgets and Albion at the top

Apr 11, 2012 Sports

 

Edinburg, bounced back from a huge loss to Memorex Bermine on Saturday to beat Skeldon Community Centre by 8-wickets on Sunday when play in the 2011 Tenelec Inc. first division 50-overs cricket tournament continued in Berbice.
Winning the toss and batting first, Skeldon were bowled out for 135 in 33.1 overs; Clavern Beresford top scoring with 21. Bowling for Edinburg, pacers Derick Cadogan took 3 for 20 from 8 overs, Zaheer Hussain 2 for 40 from 9 overs; left arm spinner Mark Sampson had 2 for 3 from 4 overs and off spinner Seeram Seecoomar 2 for 6 from 3 overs.
When Edinburg replied, they slipped to 39 for 2 before Shafiq Khan 52* (8×4) and former Berbice Under-15 wicketkeeper batman Jamal Henry 50* (3×4 3×6) put on 99 in an unbroken third wicket stand to see them to 138 for 2 in 17.1 overs.
Meanwhile, the points standing show that Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets with 14 points and two games in hand and Albion Community Centre on 12 points cannot be challenged as the top two teams in the round-robin stage of the competition which will see the four teams with the most points advancing to the semi finals.
Only Memorex Bermine (10 points) and one game to play against Skeldon can equal Albion’s points tally; and with the latter winning their head-to-head encounter, they will still be ahead. By virtue of this fact, Albion and Rose Hall Town are already assured of their semi final places.
Memorex Bermine, Universal DVD Young Warriors with 10 points from all of their matches and Port Mourant Karibee Rice and Edinburg who each have nine points with one match each to play both against Rose Hall Town, are the other teams in line for the other two semi final spots.
Memorex Bermine needs to win their last match to be certain of going forward, failing which their chance would disappear if either Port Mourant or Edinburg or both of them upset Rose Hall Town and can possibly end up with 11 points. Young Warriors had beaten both Memorex Bermine and West Berbice in their encounters.
