Demerara romped to an innings and 58 runs victory over Essequibo in their second round game of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) / Igloo Ice Cream Inter County Under-15 two-day tournament which concluded yesterday at the Enmore Community Centre ground, East Coast Demerara.
Needing to score another 114 to make Demerara bat again, Essequibo resumed on their overnight total of 35-5 and closed their second innings on 91-9 after facing 48.5 overs in the first session. Punraj Colahar was unable to bat after suffering from an upset stomach.
Overnight batsmen Orlando Jailall and Vishal Singh added 20 runs for the sixth wicket before pacer Bhojnarine Singh trapped Singh LBW for three to initiate a collapse. Joshua Jones was then caught off Anthony Antonio for eight while Ashmead Nedd removed Ronaldo Mc Pherson (02) leaving the visitors at 73-8.
Off spinner Sagar Hathiramani wrapped up the innings by trapping Shamar Dusraj in front for six; Jailall was left unbeaten on 35 (4×4). Nedd grabbed 4-30 from 12 overs, Colin Barlow 2-24 off eight while there was one each for Singh, Anthony Antonio and Hathiramani.
Demerara collected a total 23 points from the contest; 12 for the win and 11 as fast bowling bonus points and Essequibo nil.
Scores: Essequibo 52 (Jailall 23; Barlow 3-3, Antonio 3-5, Nedd 2-17) and 91-9 (Jailall 35; Nedd 4-30) lost to Demerara 201-2 (Kurt Lovell 70, Alphius Bookie 66) by an innings and 58 runs). (Zaheer Mohamed)
