Berbice ran roughshod over Demerara to chalk up a comfortable win.

Kaieteur Sports – Berbice flexed their muscles as their bevy of star bowlers ran roughshod over Demerara Tuesday to help seal a huge 7 wicket win and capture the GCB Senior Women’s Super50 Inter-county title.

Played at Malteenoes under some overcast, weather, Demerara managed just 76 all out in 29 overs with Naomi Barkoye hitting a grueling 24.

Nyia Latchman (16*) and Mandy Mangru (12) were the primary scorers for the ladies from the city, as no other player got out of the blocks.

Berbice’s star-studded lot of bowlers thrived as Ashmini Munisar (3-16), Sheneta Grimmond (2-14), Tricia Hardat (2-14) and Plaffiana Millington (2-7) made light work of their opponents.

In reply, Berbice skipped to 77-3 in 15 overs thanks to West Indies star Shabika Gajnabi hitting 24 not out off 31 balls.

Opener Realeanna Grimmond gave Berbice the ideal start with a run-a-ball 18 along with her partner Crystal Durant who chipped in with 11.

Along with some 15 extras, Demerara bowlers struggled unlike their opponents, with a wicket apiece from Kycia Schultz, Litesha Jordan and Latchman, finishing with meager success.
