After winning the toss and opted to take first knock, Reliance Hustlers reached a challenging 123-7 at the expiration of the 20-overs.

The home-team was all out for 123 in exactly 20-overs.

Jason, only name given, hit a top-score of 30 for Munroe Sports Club as right-arm seamer Mark Gonsalves grabbed 2-11 from his maximum four overs.

He was ably supported by another medium-pacer and former Guyana youth player Rovin Parasram who took 2-15 off two tidy overs.

Earlier, Hustlers struggled for momentum after wickets kept falling regularly. However, ex-Guyana youth player Nathan Persaud helped stabilize things with a solid 30, an innings comprised of two fours and a six.

Gonsalves proved his all-round capability by hitting a useful 19 not out.

Gonsalves received a trophy for his outstanding bowling performance, while Persaud was chosen as the best-batter and skipper Trevis Simon for being the best-fielder after taking two pulsating catches. Both players collected a trophy each for their effort.

Meanwhile, Guyanese boys, who are making their maiden trip to Trinidad and Tobago, will be back in action on Saturday (2026-05-02) to clash with Transbrokerage X1 in Couva in another T20 fixture.

They will then wrap-up their tour on Monday at the famous Brian Lara Cricket Academy ground where they are set meet up with Cosmos Cricket Club.
