Covent Garden/Essequibo seal empathic wins in respective Zone finals
2026 Beharry School’s Under-19 T20 Cricket…
Kaieteur Sports – Two clinical wins for Essequibo Islands and Yarrakabra Secondary Schools, headlined Sunday’s two respective Zone finals as teams rallied towards the final stages of the competition.
Zone 3 Champions Convent Garden Secondary.
Essequibo Islands beat West Demerara by 9 wickets
In a lopsided affair of the Zone 2 Region 3 finals at Uitvlugt, Essequibo Islands destroyed West Demerara by 9 wickets in the low-scoring morning match, after the latter was strangled for 27-10 after 13.2 overs.
Man of the Match Essequibo Islands Secondary Aarav Sukhram 1 run 5 wickets 6 runs from 11 balls.
It was a batting collapse as no player got to double figures as Jeremiah Garnett’s 4 runs ended up being the top score, as Aarav Sukhram ended with amazing figures of 5-1 with support from national youth all-rounder Bhomesh Lall (4-5).
The aforementioned pair then returned to mop up the runs as Sukhram (6*) and Lall (4) alongside top-scorer Jimaul Whyte (9*), saw their side to 28-1 in just the third over.
Covent Garden beat Yarrakabra by 24 runs
The second of two finals, the afternoon match saw the eventual winners Batting first in the Zone 3 finals.
Covent Garden posted a formidable 111-10 in 14.5 overs after Navindranauth Ram (25), Terick Jadgeo (24) and Nazeem Lehan (10*) led the batting charge.
Man of the Match Convent Garden Secondary Navindranauth Ram 25 runs from 29 balls Wickets 2-18.
Bowling for Yarrakabra was spearheaded by the trio of Arjune Lokenauth (3-14), Nicholl Morris (3-24) and Ajay Gordall (2-20) who did well but managed to somehow see their team fall for just 87 runs in almost the same amount of overs 14.3; thanks to equally clinical bowling.
Man-of-the-match from Saturday’s game, Vinesh Kaploo, was the star again bagging 3-24 while Ram (2-18) and Jadgeo (2-27), backed up their good batting with some top ball work.
