Cambridge Jaguars win CPSCL Rapid 100 final against VP Boys
Kaieteur Sports – Cambridge Jaguars emerged victorious in the 2024 Canadian Premier Softball Cricket League (CPSCL) Rapid 100 final against VP Boys last Saturday at the Andrew McCandless ground in Brampton, Ontario.
Kyle Karran
Choosing to bat first, Cambridge Jaguars roared to an adequate 93-6 from the allocation of 10-overs while VP Boys responded with 83-6 at the expiration of the 10-overs, losing by 10 runs.
Garfield Benjamin top-scored for VP Boys with a fighting 27 that contained three sixes. They had a flying start with Guyanese softball cricketer Chien Gittens scoring 19 but a few quick wickets left them in shamble.
Young Kyle Karran was superb with the ball grabbing 3-9 from his maximum two overs. Gleefully, it was hat-trick for Karran!
He got excellent support from Amar Singh who snatched 2-18 in his two overs as well. Singh, like Karran, displayed good control and delivered with accuracy.
Earlier, Cambridge Jaguars lost three huge wickets in quick time leaving the innings tottering at 30-3. Former Berbice Under-19 cricketer Riaz Kadir, their most prolific batsman for 8 while high-profile player Patrick Rooplall perished for 7 and Keon Sinclair, the talented all-rounder, only added 5 runs.
However, Captain and ex-Guyana youth player Hemnarine Chattergoon batted with usual responsibility to reinvogate the innings slamming 22 which turned out to be pivotal. The right-handed batsman Chattergoon clobbered three sixes and got handy support from Vijay Jhappan who accumulated 19 runs without losing his wicket.
Gittens, the dynamic all-rounder, grabbed 2-3 from two frugal overs in operation for VP Boys.
Karran was named the Most Valuable Player for his historical bowling performance. He received a trophy while one each was given to Jaguars and VP Boys.
Meanwhile, on the same day, Jaguars also defeated Amazon Masters to crown the T10 champions.
