Kaieteur Sports – Half-centuries from David Hughes and Michael Jobe guided Region #3 to a huge 99-run win over Region #10 when Match 3 of the Commissioner of Police T20 Cup continued at the Police Sports Club Ground, Eve-Leary.

A belligerent innings from Region #3 saw them notch up an imposing 218 for 7 from their allotted 20 overs, during the opening game of yesterday’s second round.

Top-order batsmen Hughes, who punched 59 with 3 fours and 4 sixes and opener Jobe, who carved 5 fours and as many sixes in his 58 runs, carried their team to a hefty first innings total.

Bowling for Region #10, Michael Frederick bagged 3 wickets despite being a bit expensive, leaking 47 runs from his quota of 4 overs.

But his team buckled under the massive target and were eventually mowed down for just 119 in 17.1 overs, with Tyrick Henry the top scorer with 29.

Region #3’s equalled their excellent batting outing by following up with an exceptional bowling exhibition led by Hemraj Persaud, who snared 5-20 runs from his four overs.

Meanwhile, Vibert Johnson lent support with an excellent spell returning 3-11 runs from only two overs, which helped to seal a brilliant win by almost a 100-run deficit. (Clifton Ross)
