The right-handed Sookdeo slammed a brilliant 111 as Mercenary tallied up a formidable 226-7 from the 20-overs and he then returned to grab 4-15 from 2.3 overs as Essequibo Coast was all out for 49 in the 12th over.
The Canada-based Guyanese all-rounder Sookdeo got support from another Guyanese-born Avish Rukhram who made 24, while there was a healthy contribution of 43 extras at Ashtonbee Park facility in Scarborough, Toronto.
