West Demerara Cricket Association T20, 2012, culminated last Sunday at the Joe Viera Park with the Invaders emphatically proving their supremacy by defeating Vergenoegen Cricket Club in the Upper League competition.

They amassed an intimidating total of 186 for 5 in their 20 overs with Khemraj Ramsundar scoring 45 (5 sixes and 2 fours), Ganesh Narine and Richard Baker scoring 24 and 20 respectively. Hamesh Persaud was the pick of the bowlers for Vergenoegen with 3 wickets for 30 runs from his allotted 4 overs.
