Nov 01, 2025 Sports

Kaieteur Sports – Sponsored by Peter Lewis Construction Service, Permaul Trading & Distribution, Diamond Fire & General Insurance Company, Readymix Concrete, and Trophy Stall, the 2025 Big Man Cricket O40s T20 playoffs has been fixed for this weekend.

After four weeks of intense competition, the playoffs will showcase the top eight teams emerging from six preliminary rounds held nationwide.

The first quarter-final at Port Mourant will see the undefeated Albion Masters face off against the West Bank Warriors. Albion features a lineup of exceptional talent, including former test players such as Devendra Bishoo and Sewnarine Chattergoon, alongside Royston Crandon and National Under-19-star Michael Chinsammy.

In contrast, the West Bank Warriors, while lacking national or international players, bring a wealth of experience with key players like Deoram Persaud, Seenarine Mathura, Anthony Ifill, Chabiraj Ramcharran, Sham Persaud, and Krishna Singh. This matchup promises to be thrilling, with Albion Masters favored to advance to the semifinals.

Quarter-final two at the Jai Hind ground will showcase a huge clash between Everest Masters and host Jai Hind Jaguars. Jai Hind has only suffered one defeat in the league stage and is expected to deliver a strong performance, led by centurion Vinode Samaroo and former Guyana player Vejai Seonarine who is also a current Windies masters’ player, alongside a robust lineup including Imran Khan, Ravi Mangali, Zamin Zakeir, and Rudolph Latcha.

Everest Masters, meanwhile, boasts a star-studded roster with former West Indies keeper Dinesh Ramdin and test player Ryan Ramdass, as well as other seasoned players like Vic Mahabeer, Rajendra Chandrika, Derwin Christian, Vishan Lall, Trevon Garraway, Lawrence Farnum, Hemraj Garbarran, Antonnel Atwell, and experienced players such as Sahadeo Hardaiow, Rohan Sarjoo, Basil Persaud, and Bheemraj Ramkhelawan, making squad selection a challenging task.

Blairmont ground will host quarter-final three, featuring the Hunters against the Vintage Strikers. While this match may lack some of the big stars from other teams, both squads are formidable and capable of delivering strong performances. Vintage Strikers will rely on the talents of Trevor and Troy Benn, along with centurion Richard Latif and Chien Gittens. The Hunters will look to their captain Shabeer Baksh and other consistent players like Balram Samaroo and Mark Sampson for a strong showing.

Lastly, quarter-final four at the Police ground will feature the unbeaten North Soesdyke Masters taking on the competitive Enterprise Star Sports. North Soesdyke boasts former West Indies players like captain Asad Fudadin and Christopher Barnwell, as well as talented youth and first-class players including Abilaish Dookie and Delbert Hicks, along with Deputy Commissioner Ravindradat Budhram expected to join the East Bank-based team.
