DCB U17 50-Over tournament…
Kaieteur Sports – West Demerara snuck past Georgetown Cricket Association (GCA) by 1 wicket, while East Coast Cricket Board (ECCB) hammered Upper Demerara Cricket Association (UDCA) by 190-runs, in the Demerara Cricket Board (DCB) Under-17 50-Over tournament which bowled off at the Everest Cricket Club Ground Sunday.
GCA were bowled out from 100 all out in 34.4 overs batting first with a string of scores from National youth players Shamar Apple (38), Dave Mohabir (18*) and Emmanuel Lewis (12).
A pair of wickets apiece from Patrice Fraser (2-17) and Yudesh Seetaram (2-24) including opening batsman Parmeshwar Ram (1-10), headlined the bowling for West Demerara.
Opener Arvind Suknanan stroked a gritty 124-ball 45 with just one four while Ram hit two fours in his 17 and 11 from Seetaram, got them over the line.
GCA had a spirited bowling performance and almost pulled off a win were it not for the nerves of the West Demerara tailenders.
Lewis (2-16), spinner Stephon Sankar (2-13) and Dhanesh Persaud (2-19), Jayden Dowlin (1-10) and skipper Mohabir (1-9) grabbed wickets.
