Wolf’s Warriors and Regal Champs carted off the male and female categories respectively when phase one of the DT\Chow Pow Ten10 softball cricket competition concluded recently. The third place play off was won by Speedboat XI (male) and 4R (female).
In the male final, Wolf’s Warriors hammered Superstars of Mahaica by 117 runs. Wolf’s Warriors
batted first and piled up 201-4 in 10 overs. Azad Azeez blasted 100 off 29 balls which included eight towering sixes and six fours while Amit Rae supported with 38 off 11 balls spiced up with five maximums and a solitary boundary. Marvin Babb took 2-40 off 2 overs.
With an asking rate of over 20 runs per over, Super Stars could only manage 84-1 in their ten overs. Narine Bailey, Vishnu Tannechandra, Devenand and Diaram Persaud bowled well for Wolf’s Warriors who took away the top prize of $500,000 along with bragging rights as the Digital Technology / CHOW POW male Ten10 champions.
In the female final, Regal Champs got the better of Trophy Stall Angels by 6 wickets.
Trophy Stall won the toss, elected to bat and scored a challenging 108-6 in their 10 overs. Skipper June Ogle led with 45 (3×4 1×6) off 25 balls, while Roxanne Demonich made 27 (1×6 2×4) from 9 balls. Skipper Nalini Sumintra with 3-18 from 2 overs was the pick of the bowlers for Regal who replied with 109-4 in 9.3 overs.
Dawn Nichols slammed 2 sixes and 5 fours in a top score of 50 off 18 balls. She was supported by opener Natasha Daniels with a run a ball 21. Regal Champs pocketed the top prize of $150,000 dollars.
In the first match which was the third place play off, Speedboat XI overcame Recharge by 89 runs. Speedboat XI won the toss, elected to take first strike and rattled up 118-3 in their ten overs.
The consistent and talented Safraz Esau scored 40 (2×4 3×6) off 18 balls while Shazim Hussain chipped in with 39 (1×4 4×6) from 20 balls. Recharge, who overcame a number of the powerful teams earlier in the tournament seemed overwhelmed by the supporters of speedboat XI and succumbed meekly limping to 29-8 in their ten overs.
The bowling of speedboat was too quick for Recharge, Greg Singh and Shazim Hussain grabbed two wickets each for three runs respectively while Imran Hamid had 2-6.
4R took the third place in the female category by virtue of their superior run rate in the preliminary stage after the game failed to take place due to the soggy conditions.
The tournament was played in collaboration with the Guyana Softball League and sponsored by Tech Giant Digital Technology, Jailing, Giftland office Max, Elegant Jewellery and pawnshop, NTN 89.1 Radio, Banks DIH, and Precise Printing among others.
The second phase is set to commence in May on the East Coast of Demerara with more incentives and a bigger entertainment package planned.
