Sans Souci and Sans Souci Jaguars recorded victories as the Mac t\20 cricket competition commenced last Sunday at the Wakenaam community center ground with two matches.
In the day’s first encounter which was reduced to 15 overs due to preparation moisture on the pitch, Sans Souci defeated Good Success by 41 runs. Sans Souci took first turn at the crease and posted 125-8 off their allotment of overs. They lost a few quick wickets before Satnarine Sahadeo who scored 39 and Seon Venture (26) batted sensibly to take their team to victory.
Medium pacer Wazir Khan and off spinner Nazeer Mohamed took two wickets each for Good Success who in reply only managed 84-6 off their 15 overs. Shoaib Namaz made 20, while Mohamed contributed 16 and Vijay Persaud 10 as off spinner Keval Persaud who bowled impressively bagged 3-15 for the winners.
In the second match Sans Souci Jaguars got the better of Zeelandia by 27 runs. Nokta Moses 30, Zameer Zaman 26 and Imran Khan 18 ensured the Jaguars ended on a defendable total of 150-8 after the game was reduced to 15 overs. National U-19 player Ricardo Adams and Navishaul Pooran picked up two wickets apiece. Zeelandia then replied with 126-8 in 15 overs.
Adams hit five sixes and two fours in a top-score of 65 while left arm spinner Imran Khan grabbed 3-24.
The competition which is being sponsored by former Sans Souci cricketers Sarfaz and Mohamed Sherifuddeen continues on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Safraz told Kaieteur sport that they are pleased to be associated with cricket on the Island once again, adding that their first competition which took place last year was played in memory of the late Mohamed Mac Bill, a former member of the Sans Souci Sports Club.
