An unbeaten second wicket stand of 140 in 23 overs between West Indies middle order batsman Assad Fudadin and Berbice senior player Jason Sinclair spearheaded Rose Hall Town Gizmos and Gadgets (RHTG&G) to an easy 9 wicket victory over Port Mourant in their semi final clash of the Berbice River Bridge / Berbice Cricket Board 50 overs tournament.
Playing at the Area ’H’ ground, Fudadin continued his rich run of form with an attractive unbeaten 82 (9×4 1×6) while Sinclair hit an attacking 69 not out decorated with 7 fours and a six as RHTG&G chased down 187 in 29.2 overs.
Batting first after losing the toss, Port Mourant’s Loydel Lewis went in the 2nd over, caught off Keon Sinclair for 1. At 5-1, Avishwar Sewharran and Samuel Krishasammy then added 15 for the next wicket before Krishasmmy was forced to retire hurt after receiving a serious blow to his right hand from Clinton Pestano.
Sewharran struggled to get the ball off the square and he was finally dismissed for 4 off 27 balls at 44-2 in the 11th over. Joshua Ramsammy, 42, Parmanand Narine, 22, and N. Cameron, 15, reached double figures while extras contributed a healthy 44 as Port Mourant reached a respectable 187 all out in 46.2 overs.
Bowling for RHTG&G, skipper Shawn Perriera took 4-29 from 10 overs and Keon Sinclair 2-33 while there was a wicket each for Fudadin, Rajiv Ivan and Collis Butts.
Needing 188 for victory, Fudadin and Vidal Crandon added 49 for the first wicket in 6.2 overs before Crandon was yorked by medium pacer Mahendra Looknauth for 14. The Fudadin and Sinclair partnership then dominated the hapless Port Mourant bowling with runs flowing on all sides of the lightening fast outfield.
Fudadin’s fifty came off 34 balls, while Sinclair’s took 37 balls. RHTG&G would play the winner of the next semi final which will feature Albion and Police.
