The 2012 Tenelec Inc. First Division round-robin 50-over cricket competition boosting the new two tier format started on Saturday last with four first round matches.
West Berbice created an upset when they beat defending champions Albion Community Centre despite an outstanding bowling performance from West Indies Leg spinner Devendra Bishoo and a half century from current West Indies test batsman Narsingh Deonarine, both for Albion.

Bishoo took 7 for 45 from 10 overs to help bowl out West Berbice for a moderate total by Albion’s standards, 165.
In Albion’s response, they lost two early wickets but Deonarine and Jonathan Foo put on 51 for the 3rd wicket. However, after Foo went for 12, Deonarine continued but when he fell for 55 (4×4 1×6) at 92 for 5. Only Guyana Under-17 player Sharaz Ramcharran put up a resistance as Albion folded for 145.
Guyana one-day off spinner Stephen Latcha and former Guyana Under-19 all-rounder Joemal LaFleur, also bowling off spin, took 4 wickets each for Bermine to rout Edinburgh for a paltry 84. Bermine in their response were themselves struggling at 26 for 3 but were able to rally out for a 5-wicket win.
Former Guyana one day wicketkeeper batsman Anthony Bramble and Gajendra Ramnarine scored 50 each to help Skeldon Community Centre post 229 for 9 innings closed against Port Mourant Karibee Rice after turning up with one short. They however went on to win by 74 runs.
New- kids-on-the-block, Bush Lot United Rising Star also had two half centuries in their innings with Brentnol Woolford hitting 60 (5×4) and Totaram Sooknanan 51 (8×4 1×6) but their efforts went in vain as Bush Lot were still 70 runs short of Blairmont Community Centre’s 268 for 9 of which Deveshwari Prashad had contributed 55 (6×4).
