Bowling for Select XI was led by Adam Mohammed who bagged 2-20 from 7 overs while Jayden David (2-15) and a wicket each from Nicholas Ramjattan, Navin Adreenflood and Hezekiah Hohenkirk sealed a pretty ordinary performance.

WDCA had an equally solid bowling exhibition thanks to Dhirendra Shivpersaud (3-26), Jaydon Birch (4-12) and (2-27) from Man-of-the-match Harricharran.
Meanwhile at Lusignan, East Coast Cricket Board (ECCB) defeated East Bank Cricket Association (EBCA) after posting 127-7, thanks to 28 apiece from Someash Boyer and Aaron Persaud; with East Bank’s Shane Dewa bagging 4-18.
EBCA were then knocked over for 65 thanks to Boyer’s brilliant returns of 5-15 which led the ECCB to an easy win.
