Berbice defeated host Essequibo by 98 runs in the fourth round of the Castrol U-15 50-over Inter County cricket competition organised by the Guyana Cricket Board yesterday at the Anna Regina Community Centre ground on the Essequibo Coast.

Shameer was the pick of the bowlers for the winners with 3-38 off 7 overs and Niall Smith took 1-14.
Berbice will now take on Demerara on Monday at Enterprise and Tuesday at the DCC ground. (Zaheer Mohamed)
