A five wicket haul by leg spinner Deonarine Persaud guided Noitgedacht Sports Club to narrow victory over Maria’s Pleasure Sports Club in a feature 30 over match played on Sunday last at the NSC ground.
The game, which was sponsored by NSC Chairman Trevor Stewart, saw the home team batting first and despite losing a few early wickets, scored a challenging 191 before they were bowled out in 28.4 overs. Matthew Cheong made a run a ball 40 while Neil Ramalho supported with 24 as Kennard Lewis captured 3-29 and Bernard Lewis 3-40.
The visitors in reply made 189 all out in 29.1 overs. Kennard Lewis was their leading batsman with 43, while Ryan Gordon stroked 39. The pair shared in a fighting fourth wicket stand of 76 after they were reduced to 20-3 in 4 overs before Gordon was caught at mid wicket off Persaud, who then accounted for Lewis two overs later, as the host fought back.
Bernard Lewis 38 was the only other batsman that showed resistance as Maria’s Pleasure fell just short of their target. Persaud was the most outstanding bowler for the winners with 5-20 while Anthony Osborne took 2-55.
NSC received a trophy for their efforts, while Kennard Lewis took the man of the match prize. Speaking after the game, Stewart congratulated the Noitgedacht team and encouraged the players to take the game seriously.
