Foo’s 71 propel Albion Community Centre into the Play-offs

Feb 07, 2013 Sports

A brilliant knock of 71 from Guyana T/20 batsman Jonathan Foo led Albion Community Centre to victory over Port Mourant Karibee Rice in their final Zone C preliminary match of the 2012 Carib Beer First Division T/20 Cricket Competition in Berbice, gaining enough points to assure them of ending up as one of the top two teams of that zone and thus earning a place in the Play-off of the competition.
In the match which was played at Port Mourant, Albion Community Centre, choosing to take first strike, lost former Guyana Under-19 batsman Kandasammy Surujnarine with only 7 runs on the board. However Foo joined Veerapen Permaul and together they put on 53 before Permaul went for 26. The Guyana Captain Veerasammy Permaul came in and he and Foo added another 75 between them in 8.5 overs after which Foo departed for 71 which included 4 fours and 4 sixes. With Permaul going on to make 29 and former West Indies cricketer Devendra Bishoo 16 N.O. Albion closed at 156 for 5 in their 20 overs.
Bowling for Port Mourant Karibee Rice, former West Indies Under-19 allrounder Zamal Khan, bowling offspin took 2 for 22 from 3 overs.
When Port Mourant responded they were given a fine start of 43 runs in 6 overs from former Guyana Under-19 captain Harrinarine Chattergoon and Joshua Ramsammy.
After that however the Albion spinners tightened the screws and made runs hard to come by and could only crawl to 120 for 5 in their 20 overs with Chattergoon topscoring with 33, Zamal Khan 30 and Boughnarine Persaud 20.
Bowling for Albion offspinner Veerapen Permaul took 2 for 24.
