2012 Ramcharitar Construction Services 1st Division Knockout Cricket in Berbice
– Albion and Young Warriors advance to Semis

Defending Champions Rose Hall Town Gizmos & Gadgets have become the first team to secure a place in the final of the 2012 Ramcharitar Construction Services First Division 50 Over Knock-out Cricket Competition in Berbice after inflicting a heavy defeat on Skeldon Community Centre in their second round encounter and then benefitting from a Bye.
Spearheading them to victory were firstly West Indies batsman Assad Fudadin with 66 (7 fours), Khemraj Mahadeo 66 (6 fours and 2 sixes) former Guyana wicketkeeper batsman Delbert Hicks 52 (5 fours and 2 sixes) and Renwick Batson 50 ( 3 fours and 1 six) who all contributed in Rose Hall’s daunting 328 for 6 in 50-Overs, the highest team score in the competition so far.
When Skeldon responded, they ran up against Guyana Under-19 right arm leggie Shawn Pereira who picked up 6 for 40 from 10 Overs to bowl them out for 141.
Former West Indies right arm legspinner Devendra Bishoo who slammed a century in Albion Community Centre’s first round match against Police on Saturday, was again in the runs for Albion Community Centre on Sunday top scoring with 67 this time which together with 66 from Veerapen Permaul helped Albion post 218 for 6 against West Berbice.
West Berbice took up the challenge and seemed set on course for an upset win when they reached 178 for 3 with 7 Overs remaining. They slipped but still in with a good chance needing 18 runs from the last two overs with 3 wickets standing. They went into the last over needing 9 with the same three wickets but with former Berbice wicketkeeper batsman Quesi Mentore losing his head and getting run out for 0 and former Guyana 20/20 star Jonathan Foo picking up the last two wickets with his legspinners, West Berbice fell agonisingly short by 6 runs.
Led by 58 not out from former Guyana Under-19 batsman Seon Hetmyer, Young Warriors coasted to an easy 5-wicket win over Edinburgh.
