Watched by a fair sized crowd last Friday night at the DCC Ground on Lance Gibbs Street Queenstown, the DCC Special Select Squad recorded a first victory over the Floodlight Team in a feature softball cricket encounter.
The game started with national opener Christopher Barnwell hitting the ball to all parts of the ground in scoring 91 and together with Zahiff Hussain, 21, recorded an opening partnership of 110 in 11 overs.
The Floodlight team were able to rebound by restricting DCC to 202 off their allotted 25 overs. The best bowler for Floodlights was Reaz Hussain 3 wickets for 24 runs.
When Floodlight replied they were taken by surprise when skipper Roger Harper opened the bowling and bowled immaculately. They eventually reached 149 all out with Surendra Nauth top scoring with 49, Bedi Ramjewan 27 and Dindial Lakhan 26. Best Bowler for DCC was Shawn Massiah with a hat-trick, ending with figures of 3 for 14 runs off 4 overs.
The Floodlight team despite loosing made a monetary contribution of $60,000 to the Demerara Cricket Club. All trophies for this match were sponsored by Survival Travel Agency of Sheriff Street.
