….Thakur records second century in competition

Ramesh Thakur recorded his second century in the West Demerara Cricket Association 40-Over Competition as Wales CDC destroyed Zeelugt by 102 runs in their match up at the Zeelugt Community Centre ground.  The previous weekend, Thakur also registered a century (114) when his team defeated New Windsor by 272 runs.
Batting first in a match that was reduced to 28 overs per side due to a wet outfield from overnight showers, Wales CDC posted 233/9 in their allotted overs. Thakur led the way with a blistering 110 and got support from Mahesh Persaud, who made 46. Persaud was also a centurion (100) in Wales CDC previous match.
Bowling for Zeelugt, Omar Shakoor was the pick of the bowlers with 5/0/31/3, while David Doodnauth chipped in with 6/0/33/2.
Chasing 234 for victory, Zeelugt only managed 131 before being bowled out in 25 overs. Terry Dass (27) and Dennis Maniram (22) were the notable scorers. Chandrika Persaud was very good with the ball, accounting for five wickets from five overs and only conceded three runs in the process. Also among the wickets was Brian Pooran with figures of 6/3/11/2.
Over at Joe Vieira Park, the match between Independence B and Windsor Forest was abandoned when heavy downpour hit the venue. This was after Independence B batted and scored 174 all out in 37.3 overs.
In other matches, Cultural and Sister’s Village match was also abandoned after 4.5 overs in Cultural innings. Meter-Meer-Zorg defeated Cornelia Ida and Zeeburg defeated McGill.
The competition continues this weekend.
