Oct 28, 2016 Sports

A brilliant century from national Under-17 player Kevin Sinclair and an outstanding all-round display from junior national, Junior Sinclair powered Rose Hall Town Pepsi into the final of BCB/New York Business Group Under-19 Cricket tournament.
Kevin Sinclair blasted an unbeaten 116 while Junior Sinclair took 5 wickets and returned with the bat to score 63 as Rose Hall Town Pepsi defeated a shell shocked Young Warriors by 9-wickets at the Albion ground in the second semi-final of the competition.
Albion had earlier in the week defeated Blairmont to advance to the final which would be played today and tomorrow at the Albion ground. Young Warriors won the toss in blazing sunshine and elected to take first strike.
Openers Alex Algoo and Ricardo Ramdehol added ten runs before Ramdehol was caught behind by Revoldo Williams off pacer Sylus Tyndall for nought in the 3rd over. Jaron France (1) and Kristoff Bahadur (00) both fell early to leave their team in early trouble at 30 for 3 in the 6th over.
However national junior player Alex Algoo stroked an attractive 73 (9×4) while an aggressive Sase Sukhoo blasted 71 (6×4 3×6) to revive their team. Trevon Stamslans chipped in with a quiet 21 as Young Warriors was bowled out for 196 in 46 of their allotted 50 overs in their first innings.
Bowling for Rose Hall Town Pepsi, Junior Sinclair claimed 5 for 33 with support from Sylus Tyndall 2 for 40 and Kevlon Anderson 2 for 30. In response, Rose Hall Pepsi openers Kevin and Junior Sinclair took the visitors bowling apart in adding 163 for the first wicket off just 29 overs before Junior Sinclair was caught off A. Ramsammy for a composed 63 with five boundaries. National player Kevlon Anderson joined Kevin Sinclair and they took their team to victory by adding an unbeaten 38 for the second wicket.
Sinclair was unbeaten with a classy 116 off 96 balls decorated with 15 boundaries. A. Ramsammy was the only successful bowler for Young Warriors with 1 for 51. The final between Albion and Rose Hall Town Pepsi promises to be an exciting event with two evenly matched teams.

Rose Hall Town Pepsi would be spearheaded by B. Yadram, Kevin Sinclair, Kevlon Anderson, Brandon Prashad, Junior Sinclair, Brandon Corlette, Keith Simpson, Sylus Tyndall, Revoldo Williams, Surendra Budhoo, David Prahalad, Simon Naidu and Joel Pike.
