This year’s Bobcat of Berbice 2nd division 20-over cricket competition for clubs in the East Bank Berbice/New Amsterdam/Canje/East Coast area continued recently with Joemal LaFleur turning in a fine all round performance guiding Tucber Park of New Amsterdam past Police in a second round encounter to gain a bye into the semifinal.
LaFleur took 3 for 15 from 3 overs in Police’ 131 for 8 off 20 overs and when Tucber replied he held the innings together with 69 (9×4) steering his team to 132 for 6 in 19.3 overs.
Neither of the other batmen got past 9, including West Indies female cricketer, Tremayne Smartt who made 8.
After Kendall’s Union of East Coast Berbice was set a target of 120 to win by Glasgow New Scheme of East Bank, their middle order batsman Ravin Seecharran stroked 54 (3×4 4×6) and Chris Yadram 47, the two adding 90 for the 4th wicket to see them home by 3 wickets.
Shafeek Khan’s 48 (4×4 2×6) for Edinburg went in vain as his team went down to Young Warriors by 12 runs.
