CID team (Commissioner of Police Seelal is 7th from left with long sleeve) took the runner-up spot.
As CID kept in shackles
By Sean Devers
Sahadeo Hadaiw used heavy artillery against the Police officers from the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) at Camp Road in one-sided shootout that lasted a little less than three hours on Friday night.
Hadaiw blasted three fours and 10 sixes in an explosive undefeated even century for Everest Masters before he surrendered his wicket to allow his teammates to engage the CID team in battle.
Hadaiw, a former senior Inter-County player for Essequibo, got good support from former West Indies under-19 batsman Hemraj Garbarran who made 37 not out and shared in a half-century fourth wicket partnership with Surindra Etwaroo, who finished unbeaten on 29 as the home side reached 212-3 off their allotted 15-overs in the softball cricket contest under lights.
When the Lawmen began their reply they were kept in shackles and shot out for 149 in the penultimate over despite a fluent 53 decorated with two fours and six sixes by Richbland Blanum and Commissioner Seelall Persaud who made 43 as Ronald Jaisingh bagged 4-6.
After the game Hadaiw was presented with the Man-the-Match award, while Everest Masters received the winning Trophy Stall Trophy from Commissioner of Police Seelall Persaud. All trophies were donated by Ramesh Sunish of Trophy Stall.
