At Queenstown, host Demerara Cricket Club batted first and posted 340-9 declared against Police. Raymond Perez blasted 18 fours and seven sixes in a fine 159 before he was stumped off Pernell London. Following the dismissal of opener Brandon Jaikarran for one, Sachin Singh and Perez added 55 for the second wicket before Singh perished for 25. Perez timed the ball well and shared in useful partnerships with Nickosie Beaton, Dexter George and Alphius Bookie. Beaton struck seven fours and one six in scoring 53, while George made 32 and Bookie 22. London claimed 3-49, Quinton Sampson 2-54 and Darson La Rose 2-71.
