The 2013 Ramcharitar Construction Services First Division 50-Over Knockout Cricket Competition got started on Saturday when one match was completely washed out while rain caused the other three matches to be considerably reduced with West Berbice, Port Mourant Karibee Rice and Police all taking the opportunity to register victories and advance to the second round.
Former Berbice under-19 batsman, Raffel Estriado, slammed 75 which included 3 fours

and 7 sixes for West Berbice and his team-mate, Berbice cricketer Krishnadat Ramoo, an even 50 with 4 fours and 2 sixes to pace West Berbice to 194 for 6 against D’Edward who were then restricted to 120 for 8 with off-spinner Ramoo taking 3 for 17 from 3 overs and pacer, Wrendell Bobb 3 for 21 from 4 overs including a hat-trick.
Veteran off-spinner, Victor Pedro, took 6 for 28 from 8 overs to assist Skeldon Community Centre to bowl out Port Mourant Karibee Rice for 132 in 28 overs. His effort, however, went in vain as Skeldon could only reach 129 all-out in their 30 overs.
